Design and operate a decision-rights model (decision types, owners, escalation, evidence)
Ensure decisions are made quickly, documented consistently, and surfaced appropriately

Surface third-party components early to avoid late-stage risk

Stand up the minimum viable Day One operating model (support, escalation, vendor coordination, onboarding)
Own audit-defensible artifacts: decision log, governance narrative, service catalog, RACI, operating playbooks, readiness assessments
