Why Legacy Migrations Stall – Assess legacy migration risks before you start

Summary: This checklist helps engineering teams identify risks and delivery challenges in legacy migrations early, enabling them to address ownership and priority issues before they cause delays.

What it does

It provides a practical tool to surface migration risks and prompt critical questions without relying on frameworks or hype.

Who it's for

Engineering teams preparing for legacy system migrations seeking to evaluate readiness and prevent delivery friction.

Why it matters

It addresses common causes of stalled migrations related to delivery pressure and unclear ownership rather than architecture.
