Lessons Learned Across Case Studies
Start Small, Ship Often
Define one outcome, release within two weeks, and measure relentlessly. Momentum builds trust, and trust buys time for the tougher integrations that truly differentiate your solution later.
Security by Design, Not Afterthought
Bake in roles, logs, and data classification from first prototype. Involve governance early, not as a gate at the end, to reduce delays and avoid expensive rework under pressure.
