1. Workload assessment: Definition of the migration project details and pre-requisites of the new architecture infrastructure.
2. Infrastructure deployment: Installation of the Workload Automation infrastructure and an initial education session to enable the customer to review and validate the migrated of data.
3. Data migration: Scheduling object definitions are migrated, and the converted data is sent to the customer in subsets of scheduling definitions for validation. 
4. Go-live and enablement: When all of the data have been migrated and approved by the customer, the legacy solution is dismissed and replaced with Workload Automation. Some additional sessions are provided that perform a deep dive into specific product configurations and to satisfy additional customer requirements.
