IT infrastructure

    An Energy Company currently has operations in Fresno, California and Chicago, Illinois. Company management reviewed the company’s client list and realized that much of the company’s growth has been from an increase in clients in the eastern and southern parts of the United States. Management believes that these clients could be better served with more localized production and with sales locations in each region. The new locations would also provide an improved possibility for growth in the regional client base. Before expansion can take place, the existing IT infrastructure will need to be evaluated to see how it needs to change to support the planned growth. You have been asked by the chief technology officer (CTO) to study the current IT infrastructure using a SWOT analysis. You will research current and emerging technologies and use your research to suggest an updated system that will resolve the identified deficiencies while also supporting the identified strengths the current system offers.
