MRA Participant Runbook
MRA Participant Runbook
Overview
This runbook helps Migration Readiness Assessment (MRA) Participants complete the MRA pre-workshop
questionnaire they have been assigned.
The pre-workshop questionnaire is designed to accelerate the assessment process and to help the MRA
Facilitator tailor and customize the workshop to meet customer needs. Planning and conducting the MRA
workshop involves three main roles:
• Facilitator (owner of the assessment) – A migration expert (AWS or Partner stakeholder)
responsible for conducting MRA and assigning a Sponsor to the pre-workshop questionnaire.
• Sponsor (owner of the MRA pre-workshop questionnaire) – A customer stakeholder (customer
executive sponsor or a primary point of contact) responsible for managing the pre-workshop
questionnaire by assigning Participants and monitoring the status of completion.
• Participant (MRA pre-workshop and workshop participant) – A customer stakeholder who was
identified as a required attendee of the MRA workshop, and who is responsible for taking the pre-
workshop questionnaire.
