EIF Overview

Download the EIF containing the Enterprise Implementation Toolkit (EIT) from http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=5897.

The term “Enterprise Implementation Toolkit (EIT)” appears to be a remnant of a marketing concept of having both a framework and a toolkit, and you arguably get both, but the language is not consistent among all the documents. Although the EIF bundle is surprisingly sloppy in places, it remains an invaluable resource.
