Process
- Read
PROJECT-PLAN.md for scope, timeline, budget, approach

RACI-CHART.md for role assignments (risk owners)
- Identify 8-15 risks across categories: Operational, Technical, Organizational, Financial, Compliance
- Score each with Likelihood (1-4) x Impact (1-4)
- Define 3+ mitigation strategies per high-score risk
- Create contingency plans for each risk
