Client-Facing Guides

Handover and adoption guides delivered to clients per milestone (Definition of Done #10). These are written for the client's team, not for internal use — they describe what was delivered, how to operate it, how it maps to compliance frameworks, and how to exit cleanly.

Guides by Package / Milestone

Guide Package / Milestone Audience
Quick-Win Quality Gates Quick-Win [QW] / M1 Any prospect or Day-30 client — self-service, zero cloud
M2a Greenfield Baseline Handover Baseline [B] / M2a Day-0 greenfield Azure client — infrastructure + identity
M2b Compliance Monitoring Handover Baseline [B] / M2b Same client — monitoring, DR, evidence, docs
Brownfield Adoption M3 Day-30/90 clients with existing IaC or Azure DevOps
Brownfield In-Place Strategy M3 (companion) Deep mechanics: layering modules onto existing configs

Not Yet Covered

  • Advanced "Certification-Ready" [A] / M4 — automated evidence platform (Vanta/Drata), SIEM, trust center, vendor/HR controls. Guide to be written when the M4 assets ship.

Conventions

  • Each guide names real on-disk module/workflow paths under modules/, apps/, and .github/workflows/.
  • Every module reference a client adopts must be pinned to a semver tag via the F11 registry — never ref=main.
  • Each guide includes a compliance mapping (cross-referenced to compliance/*/control-mapping.md), verification checklist, failure modes, and a removal / offboarding path — reflecting the ownership taxonomy (§3.7: [SO]/[CO]/[CA]/[SH]).
