Working checklist
Use each item as a discussion prompt. Record evidence, owners, assumptions, and unanswered questions rather than treating this as a pass/fail score.
- 1State the business decision the review must support
- 2Identify business, technical, security, data, and support owners
- 3List systems, interfaces, data stores, environments, and vendors
- 4Gather current diagrams and mark what may be outdated
- 5Summarise material incidents, constraints, costs, and delivery friction
- 6Record planned initiatives that depend on this architecture
- 7Define operational windows and unacceptable disruption
- 8List known assumptions and questions that still need evidence
