Product Management
Product management is an organizational function in business that centers on the development of products and brand extensions. This method is typically focused on the internal aspects of a product’s life cycle, while project marketing functions on the outward aspects of the same product. While some parts of product management apply to existing projects, the majority of these methods are used on new products or to extend the company into new areas.

Project Initiation and planning
The Project Initiation Phase is the 1st phase in the Project Management Life Cycle, as it involves starting up a new project. You can start a new project by defining its objectives, scope, purpose and deliverables to be produced. You'll also hire your project team, setup the Project Office and review the project, to gain approval to begin the next phase. Planning creates an integrated plan outlining in greater detail the various projected aspects of the proposed effort.

Cost and scheduling
Cost management is the process of planning and controlling the budget of a business. Cost management is a form of management accounting that allows a business to predict impending expenditures to help reduce the chance of going over budget.

Cost management is a form of management accounting that allows a business to predict impending expenditures to help reduce the chance of going over budget.
Scheduling
The project schedule is the tool that communicates what work needs to be performed, which resources of the organization will perform the work and the timeframes in which that work needs to be performed. The project schedule should reflect all of the work associated with delivering the project on time. Without a full and complete schedule, the project manager will be unable to communicate the complete effort, in terms of cost and resources, necessary to deliver the project.
Scope Management
The project scope is the definition of what the project is supposed to accomplish and the budget of both time and money that has been created to achieve these objectives. Best results are achieved when both the definition and the budget are precise and detailed. A good project scope document defines specifically what tasks are to be performed or results delivered. It defines the specific date when these deliverables are due and lists the budget allocated for them.
Task Management
A task has one or more people responsible for carrying out the task or supervising its execution. Usually tasks are part of a superior process (phase or project), but may also exist on their own. Task execution may lead to the provision of results. Tasks may have an estimated duration and a deadline when the task is due.
Tasks may be split up into subtasks. The subtasks of a task may be combined to form a work flow so that one task depends on the results of other tasks. Workflows may be changed at run-time by adding more tasks, deleting others or assigning existing tasks to other users for execution. Workflows may be copied for reuse. Tasks have a value assigned that describes their progress: as scheduled, critical, overdue or completed. The progress of a project is aggregated from the lower levels, subtasks, tasks, phases, to the top level, the project, and is indicated in the folder overview.
Physical plan
A strong physical development plan also provides well-outlined steps to control and guide physical growth, of particular use when dealing with organizations that have experienced tremendously rapid growth in recent years.
Building layout
Having efficient production layouts is important because it allows you to maximize the producing capacity of the space available to you. Using efficient layouts will mean you will get the products you need faster and in more quantities, which will leave you with a stronger economy and more time to pursue other objectives.
Security plan
Taking into consideration the Security plan consist of the IT infrastructure and the security culture. It ensures that the plan is implemented in security policies and procedures together with appropriate investments in services, personnel, software and hardware. The security plan is to also communicate security policies and procedures to stakeholders and users.
Evacuation plan
A goal of protecting lives and property in the event of an emergency, and ask for their help in establishing and implementing your emergency action plan. Their commitment and support are critical to the plan’s success.
Risk Management
The Risk Management Plan is a document that a project manager prepares to foresee risks, estimate impacts, and define responses to issues. It also contains a risk assessment matrix. A risk is an uncertain event or condition that, if it occurs, has a positive or negative effect on a project's objectives.

Wireless Access Point (AP)
Wireless access points (APs or WAPs) are specially configured devices on wireless local area networks (WLANs). Access points act as a central transmitter and receiver of wireless radio signals including Wi-fi. APs are most commonly used to support public Internet hotspots and also on internal business networks to extend their Wi-Fi signal range. A wireless access point serves to join or "bridge" wireless clients to a wired Ethernet network. Access points centralize all WiFi clients on a local network in so-called "infrastructure" mode. An access point in turn may connect to another access point, or to a wired Ethernet router.
VOIP Phones
A VoIP phone is a telephone set designed specifically for use in a voice over IP (VoIP) system by converting standard telephone audio into a digital format that can be transmitted over the Internet, and by converting incoming digital phone signals from the Internet to standard telephone audio.
Workstation
A workstation is a computer designed for professional use by a single user. It usually has more capacity than a personal computer, but is not as high-powered as a mainframe computer that is designed to support very complex calculations and multiple users. Workstations provide people with computing power for a variety of tasks that may require high power, such as creating three dimensional digital models. Many computer manufacturers build workstations and can develop custom systems to order for unique applications.
Switch
a switch is a device that channels incoming data from any of multiple input ports to the specific output port that will take the data toward its intended destination. Switch is a network bridge with multiple ports which helps to process and route packets at data link layer of the OSI reference model. The basic function of switch is that it perform to receive information from any source connected to it and dispatch that information to the appropriate destination only.

Printer

A printer is an external hardware device responsible for taking computer data and generating a hard copy of that data. Printers are one of the most used peripherals on computers and are commonly used to print text, images, and photos. Ink jet and laser printers are the most commonly used varieties of this device, and are most commonly hooked up to a personal computer. Some printers only print in black and white, but most include a color option as well.
Switch
A switch is a computer networking device that is used to connect different devices to a computer by using or performing a form of packet switching. A switch is far different than a hub, it’s more advanced in which it sends a message to the device that needs or requests it. The switch is what manages the flow of data across a network frame.
Laser Printers
The Laser Printer produces a higher quality and graphics than most normal printers do, which is also a digital printing process. There is a laser beam that passes over a charged drum to define a charged image. After the drum selectively collects it, it then prints the fine image onto the paper.
CCTV camera system
The CCTV camera system is purposely used for monitoring traffic, maintaining perimeter security and obtaining a visual record of human activity. It’s really a fancy name for the use of video cameras, which are used to transmit the footage taken on the video surveillance camera to a specific set of monitors that are used to capture any type of footage that the CCTV camera system caught with the naked eye.
Server
The Server is what is used to respond to request across a computer network in order to provide a network service. A server provides important services across a network to public and private users, preferably the clients. Clients typically connect to the server which is through a network but however can run on the same computer.
Software
Computer software is a program that tells a computer what to do. These instructions might be internal commands, such as updating the system clock, or a response to external input received from the keyboard or mouse. Though there are many different types of software made both with open source and proprietary standards, the programming mostly comes down to a few basic rules.
Windows server 2008
Windows Server 2008 is has the same code base as windows vista then it shares much of the same architecture and functionality. It automatically comes with most of the technical, security, management and administrative features. Processors and memory devices are modeled as Plug and Play devices, to allow hot-plugging of these devices.
Windows 7
Windows 7 Professional contains all of the features that are available in Windows Home Premium and Windows Starter editions. Like Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional uses the Windows Aero interface for convenient multitasking and organization. It also includes Windows Media Player 12, Internet Explorer 8 and Windows Media Center along with system maintenance and configuration tools.
