Use this brief with your technical, security and procurement teams before a
deployment review. Record requirements, proposed controls and open questions.
Unknowns can be marked "To confirm". Describe data categories; do not include
personal records, datasets, secrets or credentials.

## 1. Workflow and deployment

- Process, users and business owner:
- Intended environments and integrations:
- Desired service: Grid, Projects, training, Dedicated or Private:
- Existing baseline and production acceptance decision:

## 2. Data and access requirements

- Data categories and classification:
- Systems the workflow can access, permissions and access owners:
- Processing boundaries and isolation requirements:
- Logging, retention and deletion requirements:
- Requirements for model changes, evaluation and human review:

## 3. Region and residency requirements

- Required processing and storage locations:
- Cross-border requirements and permitted flexibility:
- Deployment or capacity dependencies:

Desired geography is a requirement to review. Capacity, isolation and residency
are confirmed for the engagement in writing. Planned Brazilian Dedicated stock
in May 2027 does not confirm a configuration, reserved inventory or residency.

## 4. Review requirements and timing

- Security and procurement owners:
- Required documents, questionnaires and contractual provisions:
- Privacy and data processing terms to review:
- Required evidence, approval criteria and unresolved questions:
- Support, monitoring, incident contacts and responsibility requirements:
- Target decision date and desired deployment window:

## Current context

- Grid runs on AWS today. Grid access and training are by invitation.
- The account model list confirms enabled models. Public names do not establish
  account access. Effective rates are recorded in the account agreement.
- Forward Intelligence is pursuing ISO/IEC 27001 and 42001 certification.
  Certification is not claimed by this checklist.
- Deployment, availability, service levels and operating responsibilities are
  scoped for the engagement and confirmed in the applicable written terms.

This checklist is a discovery aid. It is not a privacy policy, data processing
agreement, security attestation or service commitment.

## Next step

Prepare your deployment brief at https://www.forwardintelligence.ai/trust#brief.
Copy or download your requirements for an internal review, or carry the same
four groups into the deployment inquiry. Unanswered draft items stay open for
discovery. The team reviews the scope and confirms the applicable documents
and next step.
