Implementation Readiness & Deployment Assurance Checklist

The implementation checklist serves as a rigorous readiness framework designed to ensure that the canonical data model, associated metadata structures, and automated code-generation pipelines are deployed consistently and accurately across client environments. It provides a structured, end-to-end view of all prerequisites—spanning source-system understanding, metadata preparation, data quality governance, lineage instrumentation, and automation configuration—required before initiating full-scale ETL development. Given that the solution operates on an insert-only, metadata-driven architecture using a supported tech stack, this checklist acts as the formal validation mechanism that all upstream dependencies are understood, documented, and operational before code execution begins.
