For this discussion, assume your company has hired Research in Motion (RIM) to install and service a server to link all smartphones used by company employees to a centralized company server, for an upfront flat price.

Identify what questions you will need to ask the RIM project manager so you can present the information at the next meeting of your company's senior management.
