Workstreams share dependencies: identity and network reliability support collaboration, and meeting-room hardware must align with your collaboration platform.
- Q1 — Establish business outcomes, inventory and ownership.
- Q2 — Define solutions, budgets and project specifications.
- Q3 — Deploy in manageable stages and train users.
- Q4 — Review performance, adoption and support needs.
