Task 1: Identify Business Strategy and Gap Document the business’s strategies of “Green IT” and also summarise the components required changes for the participating organisation to implement “Green IT Project”. (Min. 300 words) Answers: Definition about the Business Strategy Analyse Strategy The strategic plan of an organisation sets out the goals a business hopes to achieve within a specified period of time. It also helps the organisation understand the environment within which they operate and the market forces that affect them. An analysis of the current strategic plan enables you to understand the goals of your organisation. However, in order to analyse the strategic plan you first need to understand the structure and purpose of a strategic plan. This topic describes the elements that make up a strategic plan. The green project we need defined every requirement. The gap which is between your plan and reality always need your notice. So you need do your best to investigate your Green Project. IT Gap Analysis Currently in place Requirements Gap Y/N Items needed Basic online study system Advance technology for studying online Y Learning Management System software Labs with the desktop applications Replace with the laptops in each labs Y Purchase laptops and arrange in the lab Task 2: Recommend a feasible solution Assume “Wells International College” is thinking of going “Green” and asked for your assistance in this project. Research different project management applications on the Internet to compare with the Green IT project management application and recommend a feasible solution with proper reasons for Windsor. (Min. 300 words) Answer:

Research different project management applications on the Internet to compare with the Green IT project management application Answer: recommend a feasible solution with proper reasons for Windsor Answers:  Reducing toxic dispersion  Enhancing material recyclability  Maximizing sustainable use of renewable resources Task 3: Project Charter Project Title: Go Green IT Project Start Date: Project Duration: Project Manager: Project Objectives: Green IT leverages information technology to streamline operations, cut costly waste, and reduce the impact on the environment. tackle the other 90%, a Green IT project extends into a variety of other departments, and to execute such an endeavour requires an effective project management function in order to identify and prioritize goals Approach  Positioning IT to enable green business practices  Revamping architecture and infrastructure – Ex: Alternative Energy Plan  Optimizing efficiency of existing IT assets - Ex: Data Centre Chargeback Model  Revising process and methods - Ex: Energy Efficiency Code Practice Budget : AU$ 120,000.00 Roles and Responsibilities Name Role Responsibility CEO/ Project Manager  Monitoring, Sponsor Project Planning, Managing Team

Secretary  Monitor Project, Assist CEO Human Resources  Provide Staff, Issue Memo to All the Employees Director of Purchasing  Assist in purchasing hardware and software Sign Off Comments : Task 4: Introduction Wells International College (WIC), has found the necessity of creating a Server Virtualization, which is the most popular power-saving strategy for data centres. The process involves replacing physical server with virtual servers, controlled by hypervisor software running on fewer physical server. Project Background: Please give project background Related factor to organization: Server virtualization will low the energy consumption of Well International College (WIC), but there are other savings as well. Running fewer servers means less space is needed in data centres. With less hardware the support burden for monitoring will also be reduced, there will be fewer servers to maintain, requiring less technicians Scope and Objectives  A detailed design and project management for Wells International College.  Physical to virtual migration process definition.  Six (6) physical to virtual server migration to virtual  Reconfigure e assure the backup operation  Testing all migrated servers Information gathering plan and approach Gathering Method and Approach The information gathering plan will involve the observation of how the current server is performing in relation to the energy consumption and how it changes the college’s structure. The method is indicated in this case to eliminate any incorrect impressions or assumptions that might have been obtained. The study of existing organization documents will also be executed in a way to understand

numerically the impact of the physical server in the energy consumption. The project will be conducted according com the approach below:  Gathering information about current server.  Implementing virtual server.  Monitoring operational system. Information repository A data warehousing solution will be implemented to store all the sources and enable all the personal to access the date base, produce reports and perform analyses while the server virtualization process is being implemented. Feasibility studies Technical The current server of Wells International College contains 1 server hack with 6 servers. Each server contains a single operational system. After online research, there were three choices for software capable of running server virtualization in the college, the specification of each server is listed below. MS Virtual Serverver MS Server 2008 VMWare vShere 4 Server 2000/2003 Yes Yes Yes Server 2003 No Yes Yes Staff needed None 2 1 Cost of Software Free AU $ 3995 $995 Operational In operational terms Wells international College is expecting to use only 1 member of its IT staff to manage the virtual servers. The college is also aiming to make changes in its structure when the physical servers were removed. The school is looking to implement a software that does not cost over AU$ 10.000,00. A Steady State Process Migration plan is also expecting, this requirement will deal mainly with disaster recovery, guaranteeing that no type of data will be lost during the migration process. Economical Economically WIC wants mainly reducing its energy consumption cost. Other reduction will also be possible, such as:  Hardware and operating cost by 50%  Reduce server cost  Reduce Desktop cost  Manpower resource.
