Methodology & Formula Explanation
How is the migration readiness score calculated?
The readiness score computes the percentage of completed operational milestones, weighting critical prerequisites such as phone number normalization and Meta Business verification before go-live approval.
Should spreadsheets be deleted immediately during migration?
No. We recommend a 72-hour parallel pilot over a weekend site visit cycle to verify webhook routing and lead assignment before making spreadsheets read-only.
