Introduction
The technology implementation had been largely influenced by the development of factors of integration for the organization (Spiegel et al. 2014). The tools and techniques useful for developing the smart development system in the organization had been resulted by the deployment of the factors of growth and improvement.
The following report had been made for reviewing the existing information system for developing better information processing system in AusEd Inc. The purpose, scope, and business context would be evaluated in this report for forming the development models for the organization.
Project Preliminaries Description
The project had been made for evaluating the existing information processing system for developing their existing system into a new information processing system for AusEd Inc. It had been seen that the organization had been establishing the online education for the students from all over the globe. The use of advanced information system would allow them to integrate their operations and improve their functions.
Purpose and scope of the problem space
The main purpose of the report is to form the integrated operations for the development of the information system used in AusEd Inc. for improving their operations. The role of the new information system is for forming suitable and effective information processing for the organization (McFeeters 2013). The development of the virtual information processing would evolve the operations of the organization to overcome and form the substitute development schemes for the organization. The online operations of the AusEd Inc would require the effective information processing for the organization. The use of the information processing would allow them to develop the existing information processing in the organization. The development of the functions would allow the modification of the information processing for the organizational processing.
Scope of the System Descriptions and Assumptions
The development of the new system would allow the users for developing the system integrated operations for the organization. The development of the information system would allow the users for forming the effective and smart development model for the organization. The role of the development model for formation of the system modification would allow the AusEd Inc for developing more effective and smart development model for the operations.

Equipment
|
Function
|
1
|
Routers
|
Routers are useful for the connecting the systems to the internet. They serve the purpose of wireless access points for the systems.
|
2
|
Switches
|
They switch the flow of data from unidirectional to bidirectional and maintain the ominous flow of current in the networking system.
|
3
|
Wireless Access Points
|
The wireless access points work similar to the routers and forms the connection between the systems and devices. The wireless connection is the only difference between the routers and wireless access points.
|
4
|
Database Storage
|
The data and information storage is another important device and tool used for forming the storage base on the network.
|
5
|
LAN Cables
|
LAN cables are used for wired connection between the devices and the routers. The devices that do not support wireless connectivity would require the LAN wired connection.
|
6
|
Ethernet Cards
|
The Ethernet cards are helpful for bridging the connection of Internet in the computer devices. The NIC (network interface cards) are helpful for developing the bridge between the router configuration and the mother board of the device.

Table 2: Overall Cost Estimation
Sustainable Development in AusEd Inc.
The sustainable development of the implemented information system would be developed for forming the implementation of the system without harming the environment and surroundings. There are three major aspects of the using Green IT Consideration in the organization,
Development of Eco-friendly Operations: The development of the effective and smart IT operations along with Green IT Consideration would help AusEd Inc for developing their operations along with environmental friendly operations.
Achieve Brand Recognition: The development of eco-friendly operations would allow the users for developing the recognition among people. The Green IT itself is a brand and the use of the concept would increase the scope of developing the brand recognition.
Conclusion
The development of the information technology would provide the scope for developing more integrated operations in the organization. The formation of the effective and smart development models for the increment of the functional operations would allow the AusEd Inc for forming the incidental operations for the organization. The sustainable development of the implemented information system would be developed for forming the implementation of the system without harming the environment and surroundings.
