Frequently asked questions
Is the sprint useful if BigQuery already exists?
Yes. The sprint can focus on an existing BigQuery environment that needs clearer model boundaries, cost controls, quality checks, or a phase-one decision.
Does the sprint require production access?
Not always. Representative schemas, query plans, exports, diagrams, reports, and cost data may be sufficient. Read-only least-privilege access is preferred when needed.
What happens if BigQuery is not the right answer?
The recommendation says so and may propose a simpler connector, an internal fix, an existing SaaS report, or deferral instead of implementation.
