PROPOSAL 
SOLUTIONS FOR DR. WEB, LLC. REPORT 
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 
The problem Dr. Web, LLC had, is that they were not using their resources effectively. 
Proper communication techniques needed to be implemented. The factors we focused on to solve 
their communication issues were the mediums they were using at the time. We decided to implement 
IP phones and instant messaging for the employees, so they would have access to more efficient 
communication methods. As for tracking projects, we suggested that they purchase a program called 
“Track-it!” where employees enter tickets in for projects that describe the client’s characteristics and 
the projects they are linked to. When the project is completed or still needs to be completed there 
will be a section that will allow the employee to write what they have done or what has to be done. 
Dr. Web, did in fact, implement all of our suggestions and the surveys for their employees have 
proven a 90% increase in satisfaction. 
INTRODUCTION 
This report was done to provide information to CBSKTB Inc., authorized by Dr. Web, LLC, for 
improving Dr. Web’s communications systems and overall fluidity of their business functions. 
The problem Dr. Web, LLC had, is that they were not using their resources effectively. Proper 
communication techniques needed to be implemented. The factors we focused on to solve their 
communication issues were the mediums they were using at the time. We decided to implement IP 
phones and instant messaging for the employees, so they would have access to more efficient 
communication methods. As for tracking projects, we suggested that they purchase a program called 
“Track-it!” where employees can enter tickets in for projects that describe the client’s characteristics 
and the projects they are linked to. When the project is completed, there will be a section that will 
allow the employee to write a description what they have accomplished. Dr. Web, did in fact, 
implement all of our suggestions and the surveys for their employees have proven a 90% increase in 
satisfaction. 
Dr. Web’s employees have been experiencing communication, collaboration, and progression of 
tracking issues. It would seem that they did not have updated technology that could handle the scope 
of issues they were experiencing. These issues lead to internal problems, but also to issues with 
competing firms that have these useful technologies because they create a competitive advantage for 
the competing firms.
FINDINGS & ANALYSIS 
Our analysis team was led by chief advisor Trevor deWindt. There was an abundance of technologies 
available for which he narrowed down according to Dr. Web, LLC.’s needs. 
In Dr. Web, LLC’s we found that these were the company’s major issues: 
· poor communication 
· using resources ineffectively 
The company also wants to enhance its knowledge and share information among individuals. 
In order Dr. Web, LLC to enhance its knowledge and share information, it must first learn to 
communicate appropriately. Better communication systems need to be implemented into the 
company. The lack of communication between employees leads in the company using its resources 
ineffectively. This is so that personnel are not wasting money and resources redoing projects because 
of the lack of communication and time zone differences. 
Our recommendations of using “Track-it”, “Eclipse”, and better means of communications not 
limited to but consisting of “second-life”, “Google Hangouts”, “Skype”, and IP phones apply to the 
problems Dr. Web was having. The recommendation of “Track-It”, a program that gives the 
employees the ability to better update and maintain projects, past and present, focuses on the 
company’s expressed concerns about the poor ability to keep projects organized. Eclipse, a coding 
platform, provides a solution to coders working on Notepad, with the increased functions Eclipse 
has over Notepad. With the current limited communication plan for Dr. Web’s company, employees 
had a lack of confidence with each other. We have recommended better communication systems to 
help these employees feel more comfortable in their work.
