The cost plan should include only the elements contained within: • the ground floor Project description The task is to provide a elemental cost plan for case study 1 - Basingstoke including executive summary, pricing basis, assumptions, exclusions, schedule of accommodation, detailed cost plan with take-off measurement, query list and specification. All required notes, templates, question details with reminders from tutor and a sample answer of elemental cost plan for another case study (Task 3 in the file) are attached for your reference. Basically You just need to follow the sample answer structure to provide a elemental cost plan by using case study 1 - Basingstoke information for the main content and case study 2 as a source of cost data . The Spons Architects and Builders Price Book 2011 Excerpt should be referred to when it is not appropriate to use the cost data contained in Case Study 2. The acceptance of the feasibility study prepared for assignment 1 is not important for the task and it is just the assumption that the project is accepted and requires more details such as cost plan for further analysis.

Managing Client/Server Environments Project description Scenario: Additional Details Health Care HQ has a client server network architecture. The chief information officer (CIO) wants to understand the difference between a client server and a peer-to-peer network. She also wants to know why she should choose one over the other. You have been asked to provide a document that discusses the networks at Health Care HQ. Comprehensive Analysis and Review In a document of 23 pages, you will provide the following: Explain a peer-to-peer network verses a client server network. Because your system is strictly Windows, your document should concentrate on the networking features of Windows Server (e.g., file sharing, print sharing, user administration, application server, Dynamic host configuration protocol DHCP, domain name system DNS, and backing up data). Include a recommendation about which Microsoft server Health Care HQ should use (i.e., Windows 2008 or Windows 2012), and explain your choice.
