Website content migration in Kenya: Delivery Planning and Acceptance Checks

Editorial update: 28 October 2026 · Business planning reference · Review scope

Plan delivery around observable acceptance

Plan the handover and acceptance record for website content migration, using the specific checkpoints for the example offer.

This is a planning reference for website content migration. The order below is an invented teaching case. It is not a completed customer job, an operating approval or a prediction of demand or earnings.

The example offer and its boundary

Fictional migration MIG-98 moves ten public pages and twenty authorised images between two owner-controlled WordPress sites. Output is old→new URL map, content/image inventory, staged destination and redirect/test log. Customer accounts, orders, mailbox moves and redesign are excluded. A page disappearing from navigation is not permission to delete its original.

This page is a work-control sheet. It does not teach a qualified trade, prescribe a food process, approve equipment or replace the appropriate technical procedure. Confirm who has the competence and authority for any specialist task.

Keep accepted and unresolved work separate

Images missingCompare media paths/rights and import log.
Redirect loopInspect source/target chains.
Copied form contacts real clientsCheck destination integrations.

The issues above are prompts to investigate, not a diagnosis of a real defect. Record what was observed, isolate the affected output where appropriate, and refer the technical decision to the competent person or approved process. Do not copy a hypothetical response into a real incident without assessment.

Reconcile the handover

Use the agreed charging basis: migration project. Record ordered, completed, accepted, held and rejected output separately. Track rework time, changed scope, credits and collection dates against the same order reference. Keep old-site recovery access until agreed acceptance; owner can edit new pages.

Proceed within a defined trial limit only after the buyer's acceptance, actual full costs and collections are recorded, and the guide's unresolved checks are addressed. The final business-specific checkpoint is: Keep old-site recovery access until agreed acceptance; owner can edit new pages. Otherwise record a hold, revision or stop decision in file 10.
