YAST: Help me find the word I'm looking for...

I don't know if it exists, but YAST means yet another stupid thread, so bear with me...

I'm redoing my resume and can't remember an expression... Help me out if you can...

The line:
"from computer purchasing to the physical and ______ set-up of all equipment."

Basically, I had to set up the equipment physically (you know, network cabling, computers, monitors, etc) and I also had to deal with setting up the OSs (Workstation and Server), the network, all software, etc. I'm looking for the word/expression that would encompass the latter...

Thanks!

I don't think there is a word that would parallel with physical that would convey the meaning you are going for. Maybe a rewording of your sentance is in order.
"from computer purchasing to the set up of the hardware and software of all systems.

Possibly, but the flow of the sentence I had in mind would be a bit better, imo.
 
from computer purchasing to the physical assembly and configuration of all equipment.
 
I'll 'bear' with you, but I'm certainly not going to 'bare' anything with you.

And you could say something like, "from computer purchasing to hardware set-up and software configuration."

You mean bare anything to/for me? Why not? 😉
 
By the way, here is the full sentence:

I was tasked with full coordination of projects, from the initial evaluation, recommendations and proposals to all aspects of purchasing (including custom computer manufacturing) to the physical and ______ set-up of all equipment.

Ummm... how about I bear with you instead? After all, I hardly know you.

Shit, I didn't realize that... hehee

well, yes, bear with me... 🙂
 
How's this sound:

I was tasked with full coordination of projects from the initial evaluation, recommendations and proposals to all aspects of purchasing (including custom computer manufacturing) to the physical assembly as well as configuration of all equipment.
 
I've thought about this far too much... My head is beginning to spin...

BTW, thanks for the input. [and corrections]
 
My revision:

I was tasked with the full coordination of projects, from the initial evaluation of equipment and software (including recommendations and proposals) to every aspect of purchasing, physical assembly, and configuration. At times, this included the custom manufacturing of computers.

I dunno, JM2C.

That sounds very nice, I think. Thank you.
