Define completion clearly
Agree what a feature must do, how it will be tested, and what remains outside scope. Clear acceptance criteria help the team review delivery without relying on subjective impressions. Keep a change log so later results have context.
Use business-owned distribution accounts and document approval, updates, monitoring, and support. Store release needs planning beyond the code. Keep approvals with someone who can confirm the business facts.
Make the plan fit your market
Discuss whether users in New Bedford need appointments, field-service access, local inventory, or delivery features. Use the actual workflow to decide whether location data is necessary; do not request device permissions merely because the app serves a local market. Review how customers in New Bedford contact the business and receive a reply.
Document APIs, authentication, failure handling, and data ownership. Test slow responses and unavailable external systems, not just the successful path. Agree a secure handover process for accounts and source files.
