I once did this for our Ministry of Finance's clients machines, although i
was successful, we replace more than 3000 windows clients country wide with
fedora, the biggest problem i had to face to convince management was
Fedora's unstable image "as per word of mouth" as compare to RHEL or other
enterprise linux/unix. second they were having fear against the short life
cycle.

you have to first keep in mind the use of machines, whether you are
proposing them for server machines or clients, what level of critical jobs
they are doing on those machines?...it would be better if you suggest them
use enterprise linux RHEL etc... "for server room".

moreover, if they are running some licensed software/application such as
database or business suite, do that support fedora on client/server machines
?

PS: i do not want to discourage you, but you have to be honest before
recommending something.
