ROADMAP / EVIDENCE ARCHITECTURE
Proof before capex
Six stages, in order. Every stage ends at a gate about site, licensing, funding, security, or public process — and every gate can end in proceed, pivot, or stop.
No stage advances because of interest, enthusiasm, or a preliminary MOU.
STAGES 01–06 · GATES BETWEEN EACH
02 / PILOT DESIGN
Design the proof
—Scoped, permitted work packages
—Quality-system design and record formats
—Supplier map and workforce plan
GATE · PACKAGES + QUALITY PLAN · PROCEED / PIVOT / STOP
03 / SITE B READINESS
Stand up the pilot space
—Workspace secured; conceptual blueprint refined to fit
—Permits, insurance, and access control in place
—Staff trained on quality and safety systems
GATE · PERMITS + INSURANCE + TRAINED STAFF · PROCEED / PIVOT / STOP
04 / CONTROLLED PILOT
Do the permitted work
—Customer-defined work packages delivered
—Full quality records for every package
—Supplier development in the region
GATE · DELIVERED WORK + RECORDS + REVIEW · PROCEED / PIVOT / STOP
05 / REPEATABILITY
Prove it holds
—Repeat work from returning customers
—Audited quality system
—Capacity and workforce evidence
GATE · AUDIT + REPEAT DEMAND · PROCEED / PIVOT / STOP
06 / CONDITIONAL SCALE
Scale only on evidence
—Staged capacity tied to demand
—Qualified leadership and security systems
—Regional partner network, where gates allow
GATE · APPROVALS + LEADERSHIP + CAPITAL + CUSTOMERS
FUTURE / SEPARATELY GATED — MUTED BRANCH
NOT AN ACTIVE PRODUCTION ROADMAP
Regulated pathway
Any regulated work is a separate decision path with its own gates: independent site screening, licensing and regulatory approvals, dedicated funding, security systems, qualified leadership, and a public municipal process. It does not inherit progress from the stages above, and no timeline is stated.
