Presence requirements
The cut-over authorisation must be signed by the CEO at the war-room kick-off on Friday, November 21 at 14:00; if the CEO cannot be present in person, a written delegation to the CFO must be issued beforehand.
Risks
- Scheduling defects not closed by November 14 → fallback: go-live postponed to December 1.
- Key users unavailable during the cut-over weekend.
