What it covers
Four areas. The app decisions are always the hard one.
Data and history
What moves, what is archived, and what you have been keeping for no reason since 2014.
Marketplace apps
Every app mapped to a Cloud equivalent, a replacement, or a decision to drop it.
Governance
Permission schemes and space ownership rebuilt before they are copied across.
People
Who needs to be told what, and when, including the teams that will notice on day one.
How it runs
Each phase ends in a decision someone owns.
Week one is the last moment you can change course cheaply. We say so out loud, every time.
AFTER
Hand over
Named owners, no dependency on us.
