Current system and requirements
Inventory the PBX or legacy phone service, numbers, extensions, users, locations, reception workflows, business hours, call queues, voicemail, recording needs, remote staff, and integrations.

This page focuses on replacing or installing a business phone system. The installation plan should connect the current PBX or carrier service, call handling, sites, network, devices, users, emergency-location data, porting, testing, and post-launch support.

Inventory the PBX or legacy phone service, numbers, extensions, users, locations, reception workflows, business hours, call queues, voicemail, recording needs, remote staff, and integrations.
Review internet circuits, firewall rules, switching, cabling, Wi-Fi, voice VLANs, power over Ethernet, device locations, electrical power, and backup-connectivity requirements before staging phones.
Compare hosted VoIP, Microsoft Teams Phone, and other supported options against licensing, desk phones, headsets, softphones, mobile apps, identities, integrations, administration, and support.
Validate the number inventory and carrier account data, document porting dependencies, stage devices, schedule the cutover, define rollback or temporary-routing options, and assign decision owners.
Review emergency calling and dispatchable-location information with the selected provider, then test inbound, outbound, voicemail, queues, ring groups, apps, desk phones, and agreed failover paths.
Train users and administrators, document call-flow changes and escalation paths, and assign ownership for moves, additions, changes, carrier issues, licensing, devices, and ongoing support.

A practical installation plan should cover call flow, users, devices, voicemail, auto attendants, emergency calling, number porting, network readiness, testing, training, and support after launch.
The best fit depends on Microsoft 365 usage, call volume, desk-phone needs, mobile users, compliance expectations, reception workflows, locations, and support requirements.
Test inbound calls, outbound calls, emergency calling, voicemail, call queues, ring groups, mobile apps, desk phones, failover behavior, and support escalation paths.
