Plan a monitoring contract exit Prepared 22 October 2026 by NightMarshal Plan the exit before the contract ends: confirm notice, equipment ownership, record export, account removal and the exact coverage handover time. Avoid a gap between the outgoing provider stopping and the incoming service accepting responsibility. Instructions 1. Check notice and ownership against signed terms. 2. Test a permitted export before the termination date. 3. Confirm coverage acceptance and remove old access with IT. Open the blank CSV in a spreadsheet app; add one row per item. Use Pending for unknowns and N/A only where a field truly does not apply. Review the separate example CSV; all example values are fictional. Keep completed sheets private. Do not include passwords, access codes, personal contacts, footage links or camera stream URLs. No input is collected by these downloads. Fields Dependency Owner Exit requirement Deadline Verification Fictional example Fictional warehouse: the outgoing supplier owns the gateway. The site schedules its replacement before contract expiry and verifies local recording during the change. Limits Contract rights and record retention vary. Obtain advice on disputed termination terms; do not disable a live service without an agreed fallback.
