5. ‘Going green doesn’t mean going into the
red’ – Reduce your company’s “Carbon Footprint”
• “It’s no secret that in today’s modern business every penny counts, and finding ways to
maximise how money is spent in your organisation is always a top priority. Ever increasing
energy prices make this expense a key focus for most establishments, but with Lapsys
Powerwise solution you can start to cut costs and save money in energy bills”.
Through a central management console Lapsys Powerwise offers you automated control over
the power saving settings of your PCs, including when they should be powered down,
whether due to inactivity or time of day.
• The Challenge:
You need to cut costs, especially in today's tough economic climate, and cut your carbon
emissions by 20% by 2010.
• The Solution:
Lapsys Powerwise console is innovative, inexpensive and simple to install. It powers up,
powers down and powers off your PCs - automatically - to give you optimum energy savings.
Which helps save you money and the environment.

Current Situation:
The current situation with the state of the existing in-house
technology is concerning enough that even if Wooldridge were
to reject this proposal outright a business option of “do the
minimum” will be required for implementation.

Assumptions:
It is assumed that the Wooldridge committee will support the findings in the proposal
submitted by Lapsys Technologies Limited and align in agreement with the following:
Business volume of ‘big-data’ will accommodate the increase in sales revenues
Market growth rate will increase as a result
Competitor business volume in the same market as identified in GAP Analysis
Staff competency levels will improve audit control
The rate of inflation will not impact on the current matrix
Prices of assets (e.g. Land, Buildings, Stock, Mineral rights)
Time assessed as required for staff to learn new skills
Time required to develop and ship new products
What happens to proposal results if the assumptions for the case are wrong?

24. Cost of Ownership - Proposal for Sage 200 Solution
Initiation recommendations
In order to minimize risks and maximize returns from Wooldridge investment
in Sage 200 ERP Solution, we further recommend that Wooldridge :
Begins working with Lapsys Technologies Consulting immediately to plan the
integration project
Ensures that Wooldridge IT staff and resources are committed to the Lapsys
implementation and integration project
Appoints a Transition Manager responsible for ensuring that existing
customer projects are completed on time without disruption during the
transition with consideration to the migration of data
Requests and reviews reports on the financial measures outlined in the
business case report and progress toward the important business objectives
outlined earlier in this presentation
