Overview of Microsoft Solutions FrameworkObjectives is to define and analyze
business requirements and provide IT solutions
MSF is the plan and build phaseMicrosoft Readiness Framework
(MRF) is the prepare phaseMicrosoft Operations Framework
(MOF) is the manage phaseBAIT model – business, applications,
