<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I attempted a checklist yesterday to guide me on my first implementation. I think after a few implementations/migrations it will become second nature but I’ve tried to make some forms that ask just the right
questions so I can have a complete list of project requirements. It just cuts down on the amount of communication that I need to do. I feel if a company kept calling you back for details, it would appear to me that they don’t have their things in order. Any
extra work could throw things off quite a bit depending on what questions I didn’t ask during the initial meetings.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Next up is making documentation templates that can be filled out and handed to a customer after implementation. Later, I will give them a dashboard where they can look at a high-level overview of their hosted
phone system.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Hi Robert,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Welcome to the fun and exciting world of Cisco implementations… You pose a tough question as there are SO very many deployment options for the complete solution. The CUCM deployment guide has a great set of steps
to follow, but there’s also the different options and platforms for gateways, analog devices, TFTP options, dial-plan, licensing(!) and more. It’s hard to have a generic one work for many different customers.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">With all of that said, I’d recommend taking a stab at it and sharing it with the list. I’m sure there will be a lot of input on anything you may have missed.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m starting to make an ordered checklist that can be followed for a basic Cisco voice implementation. Now, before I go and possibly re-create the wheel, does Cisco (or someone else) already provide such a checklist? I’ve searched the Internet
over and I haven’t found anything too promising. I am at the point where I am probably going to just develop one for my purposes and release it.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I also had the thought of making a web form that would first step you through asking the basic questions for an implementation. Then it could allow you to fill out all of the gory details for each building in the entire project and then
build a PDF of the entire implementation as a TODO check-list. Would releasing something like this even be useful for others I wonder? I’m rather new to the Cisco voice implementation scene and that might be part of my want to over-prepare but I think that
it could be a useful guide.</p>
