The post-installation handover is a critical phase where the deployment team transfers operational responsibility to the customer or their operations team. The core of this process involves providing "as-built" documentation that accurately reflects the final state of the deployed system. This includes archived configurations, which are the final, saved configurations of all network devices, and a detailed inventory list of all installed hardware and software. These documents are essential for future troubleshooting, maintenance, asset management, and change control.

A. Devices Datasheets: These are generic, pre-sales documents used during the design phase and do not reflect the specific "as-built" state of the deployed solution.

B. Devices Quick Specs: Similar to datasheets, these are high-level marketing or design-phase documents, not part of the final operational handover package.

C. Cost of the project: This is a commercial document related to project management and finance, not a technical document required for operating the network.
