The handover pack: runbooks, documentation, and real ownership

What a real handover looks like: architecture boundaries, runbooks, deployment notes, and an ownership-ready system.

Why handover is where projects fail silently

A project can 'ship' and still fail if the owner can’t operate it safely.

Good handover reduces dependency and operational risk.

What must be in every handover pack

Architecture boundaries and key decisions.

Deployment steps + rollback plan.

Runbooks: routine ops, incidents, and monitoring guidance.

How to make systems maintainable

Documentation updates are built into milestones.

Ownership transfers are explicit, not implied.
