The term "Network," defines the hardware, software, methods and procedures necessary to facilitate the efficient interchange of information among the various departments and locations of a given organization, or system/subsystem groups performing distinct tasks. In general, information in a Network can be categorized as voice, data or video, depending upon its characteristics. The relative position and precise functions of the various network components define the network's architecture.
In addition to defining the architecture, WAI-WIZE's Needs Analysis will address the following:
- Customer Objectives
- Project Requirements and Constraints
- Optional Trade-Off Analysis
- Decision Analysis
- "State-of-the-Art" Analysis
- Candidate HW/SW Architectures
- Conceptual baseline product, cost and schedule
Product Planning
WAI-WIZE provides clients with in-depth and detailed analysis of products relative to given applications, or in abstract, to determine applicability and feasibility. WAI-WIZE goes a step further and can singularly, or jointly with customers or third-party partners, develop the product and bring it to market.
Tactical and Strategic Plans
WAI-WIZE has a clear understanding of the technical requirements, business objectives and state of the industry, WAI-WIZE will assist an organization in developing short-term, transitional, and long-term strategies.
