Research and Markets: Acquiring Enterprise Wireless Network Products - Details of the Entire Acquisition Process for Wireless LAN Products

DUBLIN--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/31bb30/acquiring_enterpri) has
announced the addition of the "Acquiring Enterprise Wireless Network Products"
report to their offering.

The purpose of the wireless network acquisition process is to procure low-cost
product and service solutions that will fulfill exact network design performance
requirements, which are consistent with established corporate policies and
business objectives.

Users must decide how formal their procurement task must be, and then begin the
process with inputs from groups within the organization. Even if they are
integrating a wireless network with a pre-existing network the project may be
massive and require a formal procurement method. The long-term outlook may be
that the wired client stations will eventually be replaced entirely by the
wireless fixed or mobile stations. From group feedback they must narrow the
choice of qualified vendors and employ evaluation vehicles such as Request for
Information (RFIs) and Requests for Proposal(RFPs). Though these formal
instruments may not be needed in small contracts, the principles of procurement
are the same whatever the scale of the project.

This report details the entire acquisition process for Wireless LAN Products.
This report covers the wireless LAN acquisition process for corporate
enterprises planning to deploy or expand a wireless LAN network.
