Cisco Systems Best Practices - LifeCycle Services
For a number of years now, networks have increasingly become more important to an organisation. In fact so much so, that a growing number would be unable to function without this business focused solution. To meet this demand a network must be able to provide ever more complex business tools and encompassing technologies. With this in mind, when choosing, designing and implementing a solution, the knowledge required is considerable. A 'Solution Provider' must be able to correctly analyse and understand the needs of a business and its goals and provide a scalable solution to meet these needs first time round. This is no easy task.
With its domination of provisioning End to End Network Solutions, Cisco recognise and appreciate this more than most. In response, they have developed a considerable number of quality resources and tools to aid partners to be able to offer the right solution. Launched in 2005, the "Steps to Success" website offers a Cisco toolkit, LifeCycle Services for enabling advanced technologies. It provides Cisco partners with a step-by-step resource for selling and delivering service and support throughout the network lifecycle. Steps to Success is based on proven Cisco research and development, as well as knowledge gathered from successful Cisco solution engagements. The Steps website is divided into technology areas, with each technology presented via the Cisco Presale, Plan, Design, Implement, Operate, and Optimise [PPDIOO] methodology designed to cover all of the relevant resources required throughout the network lifecycle. On the website, you can find everything from how-to-sell and why-to-buy presentations to tools, templates, checklists, guides, manuals, articles, case studies, Q&As and white papers.
