| Progress and acceptance tracking | Connects reported completion to deliverables, unresolved issues and owner acceptance. |
Project planning and collaboration
Connect the service function to its practical benefit and a checked operating result.
Requirements → deployment → operation → validation

Requirements and security baseline
Project planning and collaboration Requirements and security baseline
- Tasks, milestones and dependencies: scope, supported systems and accountable owners
- Shared records and calendars: approved settings, access and dependencies
- Progress and acceptance tracking: acceptance criteria, retention and exceptions
Deployment and control mapping
Project planning and collaboration Deployment and control mapping
- Scope and ownership: Shared project plans, decisions and schedules that connect technical work to accountable delivery and acceptance.
- Approved rollout and acceptance: Controlled pilot covering tasks, milestones and dependencies and shared records and calendars; acceptance test: trace a completed milestone to its agreed deliverable, supporting decisions and acceptance by the accountable owner.
- Applicable requirements mapped to configuration, validation evidence and approved exceptions

Evaluation and lifecycle review
Project planning and collaboration Evaluation and lifecycle review
Selection and fit. Compare viable options against the business need, security requirements, existing systems and full operating cost. Record the reasons for the selection, the tradeoffs accepted and the conditions that would prompt a different choice.
Keeping the choice current. Follow supplier notices between scheduled reviews and reassess before renewal or a material change. Check ownership changes, renamed or retired products, subscription and licensing terms, pricing, capabilities and support commitments. Record the effect on security, data handling, integrations and service continuity. Assign an owner to approve adjustments or plan a transition, including data export and removal of access.
- Measured service outcome and practical acceptance results
- Supported scope, access, evidence availability and dependencies
- Licensing or provider terms, maintenance effort and lifecycle cost
