Most aren't.

THE READINESS TEST:

QUESTION 1: Quality Under Load → Current: 10 clients/month, 95% satisfaction → At 100 clients/month: Can you maintain 95%? → If no: System needs strengthening before scaling

...

Not all systems deserve to exist forever. Some should be killed.

But most keep running systems long after they're useful.

THE RETIREMENT CHECKLIST:

Kill a system if:

USAGE DROPPED "We built this for 50 clients/month" "Now we have 5 clients/month" Maintenance cost > value delivered

...

Every critical system needs redundancy.

One point of failure = inevitable failure.

Ask yourself: "What happens if [critical component] stops working?"

SINGLE POINT OF FAILURE EXAMPLES:

"Only I know how to run this" → What if you're sick for a week?

"Everything goes through this one...

Your systems are only as good as your team's ability to run them.

Yet most training happens once. Then never again.

Better approach: Continuous training loop.

THE 4-PART TRAINING SYSTEM:

PART 1: Initial Training → Walk through documentation → Watch them execute once → Answer...
