Sponsorship and Governance Kickoff
Walk through the governance and sponsorship activities needed to stand up an architecture capability, ensuring nothing critical is missed before the first ADM cycle.

Each prerequisite for starting an engagement is one row, read across to its owner, its RAG status and the gap that remains. The board can start Phase A only once the not-ready and partial rows have a credible path to close.
A kickoff checklist is a readiness gate, not a formality. Here the sponsor and budget are ready, but a partly-formed governance board and an unagreed repository are the conditions the engagement must close in its first sprints.
Up to 8 rows; names hold 36 characters, owners and gaps 38, so every cell fits the board.
Set each factor's status and owner; the board redraws as you work. The readiness verdict and the next move appear here.
