Stage 02
System plan
The system gets designed on paper before a single line of it gets built.
What happens
Every piece mapped before anything is built.
AOE lays out exactly what the system needs to include based on the audit — which components, how they connect, and what triggers what. This is where a customer request gets tied to an internal record, and where a workflow gets scoped to a specific step and a specific owner. Nothing gets built until the plan reflects how your business actually works.
FAQs
Do I need to approve the plan before building starts?
Yes — you'll see exactly what's planned before any work begins, so there are no surprises at handoff.
Can the plan change once building has started?
Anything outside the original scope is quoted separately before it's added, so the plan stays accurate to what you're actually paying for.
