Assurance during delivery
On This Lesson 4 topics
This lesson is planned. The outline below lists the topics it will cover. The full lesson has not been published yet.
In this lesson
explain why architecture work continues after design approval and how to plan assurance checkpoints.
Planned topics
- Approval says the design is sound on paper; assurance checks that what is built matches it and works.
- Place checkpoints at natural points: after the first vertical slice, before each integration goes live, before pilot, before go-live.
- Keep reviews light and regular, aimed at the riskiest decisions (ERP integration, payments, stock accuracy), not every class.
- Review findings are tracked to closure with owners, like ARB conditions.
- The architect is a partner to the delivery team, not an auditor arriving at the end.
