State 03 · Assure
Know before you move.
Identify blockers before execution. Turn readiness checks into accountable decisions, approved remediation and rechecks before migration begins.
Inside the platform
Inspect readiness before execution.

Readiness in context
Evidence behind Migration Ready
Evaluate source and destination requirements alongside application dependencies, environment context and wave plans.
Keep findings, confidence, exceptions and approvals in the same record used to manage migration.
Four clear check results
Pass · Warning · Blocker · Unknown
Accountable resolution
Named owners, approved remediation, rechecks and recorded decisions.
How it works
Check, resolve and recheck
Run readiness checks
Apply the readiness library to source and target requirements. Surface blockers, warnings and unknowns with visible confidence.
Route findings to owners
Connect findings to workloads, applications and waves. Make customer, partner and RiverMeadow responsibilities explicit.
Apply approved remediation
Use recommendations and governed automation to resolve readiness issues. Record approved exceptions and their decisions.
Recheck before migration
Refresh evidence and surface drift. Roll readiness up to the wave and evaluate Migration Ready against evidence and approvals.
Connected assurance
Part of the same workload lifecycle
Discovery provides context
Estate inventory, application groups and dependencies inform what to check and how to interpret findings.
The control plane coordinates resolution
Tasks, owners, exceptions and readiness remain visible across programs and waves.
Post-Flight proves the result
Source-to-target validation and application-owner UAT support acceptance and Cutover Ready after migration.
Common questions
Pre-Flight in the operating model
Where does Pre-Flight fit?
Pre-Flight supports Assure, before Migrate. Its findings and approvals contribute to Migration Ready.
Does a passed check automatically authorize migration?
Migration Ready combines readiness evidence with required approvals and accepted exceptions. Individual check results form part of that decision.
How does Pre-Flight differ from Post-Flight?
Pre-Flight checks readiness before migration. Post-Flight compares the target with its source baseline and tracks application-owner UAT and acceptance after migration.
