Using the SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) Deployment Wizard

I have to deploy my SQL Server Analysis Services project to a test server then to a production server after testing is completed. For both of these deployments I need to provide an installation program. I am not allowed to access either of these servers.

How can I create an installer that my IT team can use to perform the deployment?
