Memo
From: The PM
To: Members of the project team
Attached is the Gantt chart for the project. As you can see, we have a tight schedule. Please review it and comment on your area, as we know the coming project will be challenging. With everyone's help, though, I'm sure we can pull this off with a minimum of scope creep. I look forward to hearing from you before the meeting on Tuesday.
This project involves moving our current in-house system to a cloud solution. We are not sure yet if we're going to partner with an outside company to manage the cloud services or if we're going to just rent space on Google, Amazon, Microsoft, or other cloud services. I'll expect a recommendation from each of you based on your area of expertise. Do your research and provide me the pros and cons of the option you are recommending. Be sure to share where you got that information, so I can take a look at your reasoning if I have questions. DO NOT just cut and paste what you find, but rather explain the pros and cons in your own words.
As the cybersecurity expert, what concerns do you have, and which methods will you use to secure the network and the cloud solution? What does the partner service provide, and what will we need to do/know in the company, and what training will be needed for users?
