Principal Architect FAQ ### Q: What are the primary levers that control the cost of SLED Cooperative Procurement Hub (DIR / Co-Op)? A: Cost is controlled by five levers: (1) collapsing cloned query fan-out across legacy screens, reports & interfaces in scope into canonical core SQL views, (2) percentage of business logic already in database packages vs. UI triggers, (3) production data quality profiled during Phase 0, (4) external integration/SSO count, and (5) cutover downtime requirements. ### Q: How does your tool convert binaries (.fmb, .rdf, etc.), map database metadata, and generate documentation? A: Our automated analyzer parses legacy binaries and source files, extracts every trigger, query, and UI control, cross-references them against live database dictionary metadata (ALL_TAB_COLUMNS, ALL_DEPENDENCIES), profiles actual column data distributions, and automatically generates the Business Requirements Document (BRD), Technical Approach Doc, Test Specifications, and Verified Test Results. ### Q: What does a typical project timeline look like from kickoff to production cutover? A: Projects follow four gated phases: Phase 0 (Weeks 1-2: Binary AST Scan, Data Profiling & Auto-Generated BRD), Phase 1 (Weeks 3-6: Core Schema Uplift & Working Pilot), Phase 2 (Weeks 7-12: Automated Conversion Sprints & Test Spec Execution), and Phase 3 (Weeks 13-16: Parallel Run, Zero-Downtime Cutover & 30-Day Hypercare). ## 9.
