Scenario:

You are the director of information technology at a company that specializes in designing and selling customizable sportswear for local high school and college sports teams. Most of the computer equipment is out of date and must be replaced. You need to evaluate the technology requirements of individual employees so that you can order replacements. Determine the type of computer or mobile device that might be most appropriate for the following employees:

Graphic Designer who exclusively works in the office

Cashier who is responsible for assisting customers with purchases

Sales Representative who travels to various locations and needs wireless communications capabilities

Consider the varying requirements of each, including mobility, security, and processing capabilities. Also think about what types of software programs each employee may need to have the ability to install of their device. Discuss various options that might work for each user, and considerations when purchasing each type of device. What should be considered when purchasing each type of device for each user?

*Create a spreadsheet that you can use to weigh options for each of the above employees. Your spreadsheet should showcase the research process (so what specs are you looking for, what should each user need, what price range do your suggested devices fall in, etc...) for each employee’s needs.
