An editable project worksheet, not a guarantee of compatibility or rankings.

## Project brief

- Client / site:
- Source platform and account owner:
- Destination and account owner:
- Reason for moving:
- Critical visitor action:
- Content owner:
- Technical / DNS owner:
- Billing owner (separate approval):
- Planned cutover and content freeze:
- Rollback owner and trigger:
- Archive location (keep private):

## Scope

Rebuild the public pages in a staging draft, retain a separate source backup, and test every form and integration. A Brizy HTML export is not an editable project in another builder.

Good fit: Agencies moving brochure sites, service-business sites, or landing pages into a different editing and client-management workflow.

Pause if: A site whose essential membership, store, or WordPress-plugin workflow has no tested replacement. Resolve that dependency before moving.
