Currently, your staff has computer systems that are six years old, and that only have 15” monitors. You are going to begin sending some of your coder's home within the next year, and the current systems are not compatible with the home coding system you anticipate using. Eventually, all of your coders would like to work from home, and so you would like to upgrade all 8 of the computers in your department this year. Your manager agrees that this is important, since one of your future goals is to have all of your coding staff working from home.
