Process

A repeatable workflow with clean handoffs.

The goal is not just implementation. It's operational clarity and systems that behave after handoff.

  1. 1

    Discovery & goals

    Define outcomes, constraints, and the operational reality.

  6. 6

    Handoff

    Docs, diagrams, and runbooks your team can own.

What a clean handoff includes

  • Architecture diagrams and dependency maps
  • Runbooks for common operations and recovery
  • Automation scripts with usage notes
  • Decision log for key design choices
  • Access and ownership boundaries
  • Validation results (including restore tests where relevant)
