Make releases reviewable
Use a release checklist that covers core tasks, error handling, privacy details, and supported devices. Record changes so the team can investigate a problem after an update. Use the findings to update the brief for the next stage.
Use controlled migrations, monitoring, and rollback steps. Test a release against existing records rather than only an empty development database. End each review with a named next step.
Support after launch
Agree monitoring, update responsibilities, dependency maintenance, and support limits. A launch plan should include how defects and user feedback will be prioritized. Check what happens after the customer clicks, submits, or calls.
Describe users, tasks, data, and acceptance criteria before choosing technology. A short working prototype can reveal workflow problems earlier than a detailed visual design. List the required outputs before setting the delivery schedule.
