Router, 3 ASA installs time estimate

SRTMCSE

I'm putting together a proposal for a potential client for a router & firewall install. I've normally done 1 firewall at a time but this is the requirements for the gig -


- Install new Cisco 2620 to new T1
- Install 2 ASA 5505 in active/standy failover mode
- Install 1 ASA at another site for RA VPN
- Configure 5 laptops for VPN access
- Train staff on basic monitoring

I estimated that for all this work it should take 14-18 hours, am I under/over estimating?

Are you wondering the total time it will take you like you are going to bill them for the hours you worked on the entire project? Or are you wondering about company downtime?

If #1, then I would say you are under estimating. You need to account for ordering, preparing, implementing, documentation, etc..

If #2, then I would say you are under estimating. You can implement the equipment in a quick amount of time.

However this is all on best guess as there could be many more variables to your question.
