Document everything you can discover independently. Use network scans, asset discovery tools, and direct client interviews to build your baseline.

Should I charge separately for onboarding?

What's the most common onboarding mistake?

Rushing it. Skipping thorough documentation leads to firefighting later. Invest the time upfront — it pays dividends for the entire contract.
