INTRODUCTION
Our company is a small company named Stegman & Co. and was founded in 1915 by Edward J. Stegman, a successful and respected accounting professional. He served for more than 30 years as chairman of the Maryland State Board of Accountancy and later his two sons succeeded him. While none of the Stegman family is a member of the firm today, the current owners of the company maintain the same high standard on which Mr. Stegman established his firm. The small accounting firm of 30 employees has evolved into a full service management consulting company and is running successfully. However, Stegman & Co. have been using outdated office equipment for the past 5 years and would like to upgrade their computers and software.
Our company has been using outdated accounting software for a few years now and we have the choice of upgrading to a variety of accounting Software. The 3 types of accounting software our company may choose to upgrade to are Simply Accounting, QuickBooks, and ACCPAC Advantage Series.

The hardware must match the requirements of the software in order to run the software with good results. Then after selecting the right upgrade for software and hardware, our company must choose either to use desktop or notebook computers and the choice of either leasing or purchasing the equipment which ever fits our budget.
