| Contract End | Per contract | Deliverable handoff, extension discussion |

## Offboarding Phases

|-------|----------|----------------|
| Notification | Day 0 | Resignation received, stakeholders notified |
| Planning | Day 1-2 | Checklist created, transitions planned |
| Transition | Day 3 to Last-2 | Knowledge transfer, project handoff |
