Here’s an excerpt:

Before you start down the road of Proof-of-Concepts, Pilots, etc. you have to do some investigation first. What are some of the questions to ask of your IT organization leaders? 

1. Try asking your desktop support lead how many calls and desk-side support trips result from OS or application related problems. 
2. Ask your security lead about the gaps that remain to ensure that your data is secure and can be accessed only by who has authorization. 
3. We all know that the business runs on applications, so the applications team lead should be in here as well don’t you agree?  Ask them what the characteristics of all “corporate-approved” apps, like performance, availability, and compatibility requirements are. 
4. And finally, from the business perspective, ask the senior business managers about what objections and push-back the business users might raise about giving up some control over “their” workstations and laptops.
