# Zaivit — Enterprise delivery standard (sample)

> Evaluation sample only. This structure is not customer evidence, a certification, or a contractual commitment. Engagement-specific terms supersede it.

## 1. Purpose

Define the minimum entry conditions, decision rights, quality gates, evidence, and handover expectations for a production release.

## 2. Entry conditions

- A named product decision-maker and technical owner
- A bounded release outcome with explicit exclusions
- Relevant users, systems, integrations, and constraints identified
- Required repository, environment, and subject-matter access available
- Security, privacy, accessibility, regulatory, and operational scope identified
- Acceptance method and escalation path agreed

## 3. Working agreement

| Area | Decision owner | Working evidence | Review point |
|---|---|---|---|
| Product | Product owner | Scope map, acceptance criteria | Increment review |
| Architecture | Technical owner | Decision records, system diagram | Architecture review |
| Security and privacy | Risk owner | Threat model, control map, exceptions | Risk review |
| Quality | Delivery lead | Automated checks, review record | Release gate |
| Accessibility and performance | Product + technical owners | Test results, agreed thresholds | Release gate |
| Operations | Service owner | Runbook, monitoring, rollback path | Readiness review |

## 4. Release gates

### Product gate

- Acceptance criteria have been demonstrated.
- Material scope changes are recorded.
- Known limitations are visible to the accepting owner.

### Engineering gate

- Required automated checks pass.
- Material dependencies and exceptions are recorded.
- Deployment, configuration, and rollback paths are reproducible.

### Assurance gate

- Applicable risks and controls have named owners.
- Evidence links resolve to current artifacts.
- Residual risks have explicit acceptance or remediation actions.

### Operating gate

- Monitoring and alert ownership are defined.
- The runbook covers expected failure and recovery paths.
- Handover recipients can access the source, documentation, and evidence.

## 5. Exception handling

Every exception records:

1. the unmet condition;
2. the reason and impact;
3. the temporary or permanent decision;
4. the accountable approver;
5. the remediation owner and target date, when applicable.

## 6. Handover package

- Source and build instructions
- Architecture and material decision records
- Environment and deployment guidance without embedded secrets
- Release evidence index
- Monitoring, support, incident, and rollback runbooks
- Known risks, exceptions, and follow-up roadmap
- Ownership and access-transfer record

## 7. Tailoring note

The final standard must be tailored to the product, data, threat model, regulatory scope, delivery environment, and signed commercial terms.
