Introduction
This project plan represents a general collection of processes and procedures covering the implementation of Voice over IP (VoIP) Solution for a fictitious customer. The purpose of this document is to define a VoIP project plan proposal to provide a customer with a comprehensive plan outlining the details, stakeholders, and time-frames for the defined project scope. I have developed the project plan in conjunction with the customer to identify implementation objectives and priorities. The project plan includes Project Scope, VoIP Implementation Plan, Dependencies, Risk Assessment and Management, VoIP Training, Communication Overview, and Project Closeout.

This includes, but not limited to, toll calling, domestic long distance, and international calls. The greatest benefit the customer sees is the four-digit dialing plan capability that will include extensions for people who tele-commute (work from home).
The first phases of the project will target Centranet users in a select department, as this is where the first trial can take place and help establish metrics for the system as a whole. Migration from existing Centranet system will happen as departments determine their existing equipment needs upgrades or replacements; although, it
