# Sample Architecture Assessment Action Plan

Fictional demonstration for an Azure-hosted business application. This is not
a client finding, an actual assessment, or a production release approval.

## Review Boundary

One application workload and its operating responsibilities. Subscription-wide
governance, penetration testing, deployment, and certification are excluded.
The example has no access to a real environment or client evidence.

## Decisions Before Release

| Action | Proposed Accountable Role | Evidence Required | Current Status |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Confirm service ownership and escalation | Business sponsor | Accepted owner and operating responsibilities | Not assessed |
| Agree recovery objectives | Workload owner | Business-approved recovery requirements | Not assessed |
| Validate recovery and rollback | Operations lead | Executed test results in an authorized environment | Not tested |
| Review identity and access boundaries | Identity owner | Permission inventory and approved access model | Not assessed |
| Establish cost assumptions | Budget owner | Workload inventory, pricing assumptions, and budget decision | Not assessed |
| Define production acceptance | Release authority | Agreed acceptance tests and unresolved-risk disposition | Not approved |

## Sequence

1. Agree the business objective, workload boundary, and decision authority.
2. Collect evidence and identify material gaps without assuming controls work.
3. Assign actions and complete the agreed validation.
4. Review exceptions and make an explicit release decision.

No duration, savings, control effectiveness, or successful deployment is
asserted by this demonstration.
