    • Confirm the incumbent system has been decommissioned or retained read-only and that data migration or archiving is complete.
    • Publish the acceptance record showing pass/fail per criterion and capture the buyer's approval record or named signatory where applicable.
    • List remediation tasks for failed criteria with target completion dates and the evidentiary requirements for re-check.
    • Deliver an incumbent wind-down report confirming contract termination or read-only retention, and the status of data archiving or migration.
    • Performance trends and anomalies
    • Ensure uptime percentage and average monthly revenue per charger remain on track or have an agreed remediation plan.
    • Close persistent operational issues or move them into an agreed-resolution plan with target dates.
