You need to work from home.
Here is what you need-
1) Bandwidth – Broad band
Bandwidth fallback – In case the broad band fails. This should ideally be a wireless kind of modem.
Same goes for your PC s ,backup data online or in your seperate PC .
Have one UPS handy.
2) Communication – Use Skype or Gtalk
3) Email Addresses – In case you do not have your own web server, GMAIL offers most flexibilty because you can use outlook with it . Plus GTALK is loaded with it.
4) Remote Access – Use in Built Features of Microsoft like
a) remote desktop connection (Start -Programs-Accessories-Communication)
b) net meeting (Start- run – type -conf and press enter )
5) Software costs – Use remote applications to connect to Pcs which are pre installed with required software to ensure all software in your org is utilized 24 * 7 .
or use open source and freeware
(like open office ,
google apps,
avg anti virus,
zone alarm firewall,
download accelerator,
ubuntu linux,
mozilla firefox)
Try and test this on 10 % of your staff for three months and note the difference in costs. Then scale up/down depending on experience.
