Part 1
2
From Prototype to Production
5 / 25
What You Built
1
You built a prototype.
2
It works when you run it.
3
That is not the same as production.
6 / 25
What Production Actually Means
1
Infrastructure. Security. Scale.
2
Compliance. Monitoring. Maintenance.
3
None of that is in your prototype.
7 / 25
The AIO and the AI Engineer
1
You designed the system. They build the production version.
2
Neither can do it alone.
8 / 25
Your Production Brief Is the Spec
1
Not a summary. Not instructions for yourself.
2
The document you hand to an AI Engineer so they can build exactly what you designed.

The Production Brief
10 / 25
One Document, Three Audiences
1
Your CEO reads it. Your AI Engineer builds from it. Your team uses it.
2
One document. Three audiences.
11 / 25
The Six Components
1
What It Is. Why It Matters. What It Needs.
2
Who Owns It. Who Runs It. How You Know It Works.
12 / 25
Component 3 - What It Needs
1
Written for the AI Engineer.
2
Specific enough to build from.
13 / 25
Component 4 - Who Owns It
1
Name one person. Not "the team."
2
The AI Officer owns the program. The engineer owns the infrastructure.
14 / 25
Component 6 - How You Know It Works
1
Metrics are not just for leadership.
2
They tell the engineer what to build.
15 / 25
Worked Example - Production Brief
1
Lead Qualification Agent - Revenue Office

Part 3
2
Governance, Handoff, and the Pre-launch Review
17 / 25
The Governance Loop
1
The engineer maintains the infrastructure.
2
You own the program.
18 / 25
The Pre-launch Review
1
Before go-live, you check the build against the brief.
2
Not a technical audit. A requirements audit.

Brief 5 - What You're Writing
1
A real document for a real program.
2
Clear enough for an engineer to build from. Clear enough for a leader to approve.
