1. 01

   Export everything before you give notice

   Download policies, evidence with timestamps, the risk register, vendor reviews and any test history. Some exports are only available while your contract is active.

2. 02

   Time the switch around your observation period

   Switch between observation periods, not during one. If the renewal falls mid-period, ask Scrut Automation for a short extension rather than moving tools mid-audit.

3. 03

   Tell your auditor before you sign

   Confirm they can audit from the new platform or accept its exports.

4. 04

   Run both tools for one control cycle

   Connect the new platform and compare its test results with Scrut Automation's for about 30 days before relying on it.

5. 05

   Keep read-only access until the report is issued

   Your auditor may ask for evidence from the old system. Negotiate read-only access, or keep a dated archive of every export.
