IT Infrastructure Migration Post-Mortem Form

Streamline Your IT Migration Reviews with Paperform

Every IT infrastructure migration—whether you're moving to the cloud, upgrading servers, or consolidating data centers—comes with critical lessons that shape future projects. This IT Infrastructure Migration Post-Mortem Form gives IT teams, project managers, and infrastructure engineers a structured way to capture what worked, what didn't, and what needs to change next time.

Built for IT teams that need clarity after complex migrations

Moving infrastructure is high-stakes work. Downtime costs money, data integrity issues create risk, and user adoption challenges slow down ROI. This template helps you document:

• Migration overview and timeline to establish context
• Downtime tracking with detailed incident logs and impact analysis
• Data integrity verification results and any anomalies discovered
• User adoption challenges including resistance, training gaps, and support ticket trends
• What went well and what didn't from the team's perspective
• Root cause analysis for major issues
• Actionable recommendations for future migrations

By centralizing post-mortem insights in one place, you create a knowledge base that makes each migration smoother than the last.

Why Paperform works for IT post-mortems

Paperform's flexible editor lets you build forms that match your team's workflow. Use conditional logic to show follow-up questions only when critical issues are flagged, add file upload fields for screenshots or logs, and apply calculations to quantify downtime costs or data verification pass rates.

Once submissions come in, you can trigger automated workflows with Stepper—route post-mortem reports to stakeholders, create follow-up tasks in your project management tool, or update a central lessons-learned database without manual copy-paste. For teams that need sign-off on findings, Papersign lets you turn the post-mortem into a formal document for approval and archiving.

Perfect for IT managers, infrastructure teams, and consultants

Whether you're an internal IT team running your own migrations or a consulting firm managing client infrastructure projects, this template gives you a repeatable, professional framework for post-mortem analysis. It's particularly valuable for:

• IT departments in finance, healthcare, education, and enterprise organizations
• Managed service providers (MSPs) documenting client migrations
• DevOps and SRE teams conducting incident reviews and blameless post-mortems
• Project managers responsible for infrastructure transformation initiatives

With Paperform's SOC 2 Type II compliance and security controls, you can trust that sensitive migration data stays protected. Use roles and permissions to control who sees what, and leverage integrations with Slack, Jira, Notion, or your CRM to keep post-mortem insights flowing into your existing stack.
