• Establish core support metrics (e.g., response time, resolution time, backlog health) and build simple, actionable reporting.

• Document standard operating procedures, escalation paths, and ownership models that enable consistency without bureaucracy.

• Define the initial scope and structure of the customer knowledge base, including what content exists, what’s missing, and how it stays current.
