Migration
How a team would move from the status quo without a big-bang cutover.
Step 01
Map the current path
Name the tools, owners and handoffs that the product replaces. Nothing is removed yet.
Step 02

Retire the old path
Remove the previous tool only when the new record is complete enough to audit.
