		<description>Good article Rolfe with some very timely suggestions. I would add to your first item by suggesting a review of IT management tools in general. We have found at our clients over the years that there has been a proliferation of these tools into their environments to manage all aspects of IT. However; these tools keep evolving and growing in functionality, resulting in companies having multiple tools that can do the same thing. Pairing these down can not only save on software licensing and maintenance costs but can also reduce administrative headaches through a cleaner and more streamlined environment.</description>
