Purpose
This section defines the minimum company foundation that must exist before creating cloud platforms, deploying websites, onboarding products, or granting team access.
Foundation first: a deployment is not production-ready merely because the website opens. Ownership, MFA, recovery, billing, DNS protection, and documentation must also be in place.
