# Company Reactivation Plan
> Status: draft v0.1 — 2026-07-16. Turns the dormant legal shell (founded 2019)
> into an operating company. Phase model from `history/260715-InitialExploration.md`.
## Phase overview
| Phase | Name | Goal | Status |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 0 | Dormant legal shell | — | current |
| 1 | Reactivation | Administratively alive, clean, compliant, usable | **next** |
| 2 | Operating company | First offers sold and delivered | planned |
| 3 | Ecosystem provider | Provider of Coulomb / Net Kingdom / Railiance products | planned |
| 4 | Operational Knowledge GmbH | Rename when identity has caught up with mission | planned |
| 5 | OK-level ambition | Category-defining; ok.com becomes rational | north star |
## Phase 1 checklist — Reactivation
Each item needs: current-state evidence, required action, owner (Bernd /
accountant / bank / agent-preparable), and autonomy lane.
### Legal & registry
- [ ] Verify Handelsregister entry, registered address, Geschäftsführer details are current
- [ ] Locate articles of association and shareholder documents; file in evidence store
- [ ] Review company purpose (Unternehmensgegenstand) — is it compatible with the OK mission? (Red lane: change requires notary)
### Tax & accounting
- [~] Establish accountant relationship — **in progress**: previous StB (Weglarzy/FSW) ended after JA 2024; inquiry to Bohle-Horsmann sent 2026-07-06, follow-up early August (OH-2026-001)
- [x] Confirm status of past filings — **current through JA 2024** (report on file); JA 2025 open pending new mandate (RISK-006)
- [~] Set up bookkeeping workflow — DATEV DUO in place via old StB; receipt backlog + license transition open (OH-2026-002, RISK-007)
### Banking & finance
- [~] Confirm business bank account state and access — **Qonto active**; cost review queued (OH-2026-003); changes remain Red lane
- [~] Inventory current costs, subscriptions, and obligations — known: desk (Binect co-working Darmstadt), StB fees, Qonto, Stripe, base costs; consolidated list pending
- [ ] Establish cash/runway view (Finance Steward loop)
### Digital presence
- [~] Domains: `binky-hedgehog.com` owned; full inventory + primary-domain decision pending (AWQ-003)
- [~] Company email on own domain — **exists**: bernd.worsch@binky-hedgehog.com; Net Kingdom / OpenBao integration pending (AWQ-007), not yet used for company correspondence
- [ ] Minimal website: one page stating what the company does (transition wording below)
### Contracts & IP
- [ ] Inventory existing contracts and obligations
- [ ] Clarify IP ownership: which repos/assets belong to the GmbH vs. Bernd privately — needed before selling ecosystem products
- [ ] Contract templates (NDA, service agreement) — draft lane only
### Internal governance
- [x] Company canon in this repo (this document set) — **v1.0 ratified 2026-07-16** (DEC-2026-001)
- [ ] Decision records started (`DecisionQueue.md`)
- [ ] Autonomy policy in force (`AutonomyPolicy.md`)
## Transition wording (external, during Phases 13)
> Binky Hedgehog GmbH develops operational knowledge infrastructure for
> agentic, secure, and self-improving organizations.
## First internal deliverable
**Binky Operational Knowledge Audit v0** — run the company's own flagship
offer on itself: assess legal, tax, banking, domains, email, contracts,
products, repos, IP ownership, obligations, costs, revenue paths, assets,
missing capabilities, risks. Output feeds this checklist, the
`RiskRegister.md`, and becomes the reusable audit template (dogfood evidence).
