Agree on the checks before changing the system.
Our five-stage method gives your team a way to review the work. We size the scope, evidence and approvals to the engagement, from a focused repair to an implementation.

Assess
What happensWalk through the affected process with your team. Review the environment, source data and constraints. Define what is in scope and how success will be checked.
Review before moving onA written scope with assumptions, responsibilities and acceptance checks. Your team agrees to the plan before delivery begins.
- 02
Prove
What happensRehearse the change in a test environment. For a migration, compare the loaded records and balances with the source. For a workflow, exercise the normal path and the failure cases.
Review before moving onTest results and an exception list. Review the evidence together and agree what must be resolved before cutover.
- 03
Land
What happensRun the agreed cutover steps in dependency order. Name the people making the go or stop decision, and record the recovery steps before the window opens.
Review before moving onA completed cutover checklist, with outcomes and exceptions recorded against each step.
- 04
Verify
What happensCheck the live result against the acceptance criteria. Reconcile data where it moved, and walk through the affected work with the people who own it.
Review before moving onA written verification record: what passed, what remains open and who owns each unresolved item.
- 05
Stabilize
What happensWork through issues during the agreed support window. Hand over the operating notes and known exceptions, then agree on ongoing support if it is needed.
Review before moving onA handoff your team can use, with support responsibilities and the next steps for any remaining work.
