IBM preproduction approvals

Following the Solution Kickoff Meeting, the EF Specialist will request internal pre-approval to proceed with implementing the solution in the IBMid Preproduction environment from IBMid Executive Management.

IBMid Executive Management will verify the following:
  • Are the EF Business Owner and EF Technical Owner the appropriate contacts to manage the EF partner’s federation relationship with IBM?
  • Does the integration conform with IBMid EF policies?
  • Are there any issues of concern which need to be addressed?
  • Is the proposed integration technically viable?
  • Does the proposed integration meet IBMid technical criteria?
  • Are there any unusual aspects of the integration which need to be addressed?
  • Does the EF partner have full ownership and control of the requested domains?
