6 · RAID · amber & red escalations
| ID | Type | Severity | WS | Title & mitigation | Owner |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| R001 | Risk | Amber | WS4 | Fractional counsel engagement timing — must land by Steerco #3 Three candidates engaged early; recommendation tabled at Steerco #2 |
Carla (PMO) |
| R002 | Risk | Amber | WS6 | Senior BDM appointment timing — Vertical-1 partner conversations dependent on BDM seat being filled PMO holds partner conversations until BDM appointed; shortlist narrowed at Steerco #2 |
Carla (PMO) |
| A006 | Assumption | Amber | WS2 | Compliance gate default checklist: claims-substantiated · disclosure-present · brand-approved · legal-cleared Settings → Compliance Gates exposes per-asset-type checklist. Corrina + counsel ratify the production set at Steerco #3 before any /crm/* compliance gate goes live. Demo uses 4-default seed. |
Corrina (consulted) · Carla (accountable) |
| A007 | Assumption | Amber | WS2 | Cooling-off period defaults to 14 days, vertical-agnostic Settings → Cooling-off exposes per-vertical / per-commission-type duration. Demo seeds 14 days flat; Matt ratifies vertical-specific durations at Steerco #3 before commission engine production cutover. |
Matt (consulted) · Carla (accountable) |
| A008 | Assumption | Amber | WS2 | Commission base rate placeholder 10% until Matt-signed policy lands Settings → Commission Engine exposes per-vertical rate + tiered structure (volume / tenure / mix bonus). Demo seeds 10% flat placeholder. Production /me/commissions/* gated until Matt-signed policy is loaded into config_commission_policy. |
Matt (consulted) · Carla (accountable) |
| A015 | Assumption | Amber | WS2 | Sales-internal + CS suite embodiers TBA until Phase 2 BAU hires Phase 1 demo uses TBA placeholders. Settings → Roles & Access allows assignment of real users to Sales / CS roles once Phase 2 BAU hires land. No code change. |
Carla (WS2 Lead) |
| R003 | Risk | Amber | WS2 | Settings versioning + retroactive recalc risk on commission engine Commission policy changes must be effective-dated, never retroactive without explicit recalc approval. Historical commission records carry the policy-version they were calculated against. Dry-run preview before save shows "would change N commissions, total $X delta". |
Carla (WS2 Lead) |
| R004 | Risk | Amber | WS2 | Misconfigured Settings could break commission engine or compliance gate Settings admin permission gated to specific roles (CFO + Compliance Officer). Financial-rule changes require dual sign-off. All changes audited with before/after diff. Recovery: every settings row versioned, one-click revert. |
Carla (WS2 Lead) |
| D002 | Dependency | Amber | WS2 | Final commission policy from Matt before /me/commissions/* production cutover Demo seeds 10% placeholder. Production /me/commissions/* blocked until Matt-signed policy loaded into config_commission_policy. Settings → Commission Engine exposes the editor; Matt completes by Steerco #3. |
Matt (consulted) · Carla (accountable) |
| D003 | Dependency | Amber | WS2 | AU regulatory clearance on member-side commission framing (AFSL / AUSTRAC / consumer law) Counsel-engaged sprint Steerco #2 → #3 covers AFSL applicability for referral payments, AUSTRAC AML/CTF for member payouts, ACL disclosure obligations. /me/commissions/* + /crm/compliance/* surfaces parameterised by counsel-ratified rules in Settings. |
Compliance (Pine Lawyers, consulted) · Carla (accountable) |
| I001 | Issue | Amber | WS2 | Architectural pivot — /crm-demo/* must be a working CRM tool, not a styled walkthrough Decision D-PIVOT-CRM (Carla, 2026-06-24): /crm-demo/* refactored from visual narrative pages to a real three-pane CRM workspace backed by D1. New schema (migration 0003): contacts, deals, activities, tickets, notes, settings_rows. Sarah Chen + 24 demo contacts seeded. BD/Sales/CS/CMO workspaces share contact data so the cross-role thread is real, not narrated. Pipeline kanban actually drags; settings actually edit; cooling-off change actually propagates. Demo data only — /crm-demo/* gate held; /crm/* untouched. Resolves the risk Matt and Corrina decline sign-off on a visual mock. |
