Compose and submit to Discussion Board, as a reply to the appropriate Weighty Post Option thread, a structured post (a structured post has an introduction, a conclusion, and a developed body that flows well - generally at least a few paragraphs - at least 250 words), using your own words, on at least one of these weighty questions:

Background: You are working for a large hospital, Winterfell Health Systems, in the American Southwest. At Winterfell, expensive equipment is often shared between units and moved throughout the hospital facilities. One of the concerns expressed by medical professionals and managers in the organization is the difficulty of tracking specific pieces of equipment. As a result more units are purchased to make sure that at least one of them is always available when needed. From efficiency perspective there is no data to track usage of specific equipment. The machinery is also becoming more wirelessly connected and some security concerns have been raised. The BI team you are a part of has been asked to work with the technology infrastructure team to make recommendations on a system that will track the location and daily usage of every individual piece of equipment. New information: Winterfell has recently purchased "smart" machinery devices that fall into the Internet of Things (IoT) category and are capable of communicating independently with other machines in the facility and potentially with patients' electronic health records (EHR).

Task: Using whatever you learned from your work

1. What do you need to cover to make a complete technical infrastructure evaluation? What questions do you need to ask?

2. What facts do you need to know?

3. How will you go about finding out the information you need?

4. What might happen if you performed a technical infrastructure evaluation but not a non-technical infrastructure evaluation?

5. How does data governance and quality factor into your research?
