Intro

For ease of explaining the project and who it might benefit, we created an example “story” to help users visualize the components. In the story below, Contoso is ISV who developed the BadgeMeUp SaaS platform and Lucerne Publishing is the customer who purchased BadgeMeUp for use by employees within their organization.
