After go-live: who operates the system

Discover, Build, Support, and Operate are separate scopes. Each stage uses its own agreement. Start at the stage that matches the system after scope and the technical baseline are confirmed.

Support

Reactive troubleshooting and advice. Your team remains the primary operator.

Operate

Zotect operates the system proactively only within the agreed scope, after onboarding and a confirmed baseline.
