Delivery checklist: acceptance checklist

Context: This write-up is for colleagues progressing project delivery. The client is in food & beverage, roughly a dozen staff, based around capital business districts. QA walked the main path three times on real devices and flagged edge cases around test case review. Add a field dictionary to the docs so new joiners ask fewer repeat questions.

Background & Goals

The same requirement can sound different across departments; writing it down helps align decisions on backup and recovery drills. QA walked the main path three times on real devices and flagged edge cases around backup and recovery drills. Archive screenshots and config change IDs for this backup and recovery drills round so next month's retrospective stays concrete. The same requirement can sound different across departments; writing it down helps align decisions on training and handover. Editors know the CMS well enough, but training and handover still needs a one-page rule sheet to cut verbal rework. Add a field dictionary to the docs so new joiners ask fewer repeat questions.

Delivery Approach

Last week we reviewed invoice and payment checkpoints with the client's IT lead. They care more about stability than buzzwords. Business asked for a clickable prototype within two weeks, while engineering wanted to lock fields related to invoice and payment checkpoints first. Next, we recommend to require a change request for any scope change. If more features are added, scope the blast radius before scheduling. Last week we reviewed monitoring alert thresholds with the client's IT lead. They care more about stability than buzzwords. QA walked the main path three times on real devices and flagged edge cases around monitoring alert thresholds. Add a field dictionary to the docs so new joiners ask fewer repeat questions.

Operations & Collaboration

Last week we reviewed training and handover with the client's IT lead. They care more about stability than buzzwords. We hit a case of sales never receiving emails after form submit. Troubleshooting started with logs on approval workflows, then followed our reproduction steps. Archive screenshots and config change IDs for this training and handover round so next month's retrospective stays concrete. Last week we reviewed change-request control with the client's IT lead. They care more about stability than buzzwords. Business asked for a clickable prototype within two weeks, while engineering wanted to lock fields related to change-request control first. Archive screenshots and config change IDs for this change-request control round so next month's retrospective stays concrete.

Takeaways: The same requirement can sound different across departments; writing it down helps align decisions on weekly status cadence. QA walked the main path three times on real devices and flagged edge cases around weekly status cadence. Archive screenshots and config change IDs for this weekly status cadence round so next month's retrospective stays concrete.
