I am a new Technology manager/applications manager. My first task with the new position is to assess/review our current systems and software infrastructure. Basically a review of the hardware and software used within our group. Can anyone please point me to an example of such a review or template? Is there a community wide accepted practice in performing such a review? Saving Changes...

The most widely known assessment process is the Software Engineering Institute Capability Maturity Model, SEI CMM. Many other templates and models are offshoots of the SEI CMM. It is massive, but I suspect that you would need only the Level 2 material. Go to http://www.sei.cmu.edu/cmm/cmms/cmms.html and get a feel for the available models. Your taxes paid for them, use them.
