Customer Technology Site Survey

Okay for those of you who are in a similar job function as me will find this a useful tool. We have been attempting to create a step by step guide to first visit to a client site. This would be what we are gathering for all information about the clients current network environment. I would like to get some feed back from people to see what they think. Below are a list of questions that need to answered prior to creating a proposal.

  • Client Name
  • Client Address
  • Contact Name, Email, Phone "Hours they are available"
  • Do they rent or own the building
  • Primary site (Remote site)
  • Site hours of operation
  • If multiple sites their hours, location and contact personel
  • Number of Servers (Operating systems installed)
  • Hardware configuration for each server
  • Switches and configurations of switches
  • Pictures
  • Log in credentials for all servers
  • Verification of backup's
  • Test backup's to ensure all data is being backed up
  • Number of users
  • Number of computers
  • Voice communication is digital/analog/VoIP
  • Wireless configuration (if applicable)
  • ISP (contact information and Account info)
  • Firewall configuration / Access and backup configuration
  • Any additional notes not covered in documentation
This is a start towards a complete and overall view of a clients network. As each site is assessed we will be making changes and I will make those changes here for everyone to view.

Please send me some feed back of additional information that should be added or deleted.
