Make sure you have full connectivity - Exchange boxes, DCs and GCs (if different) using both DNS and WINS (I know it is little used but it can have an effect on certain aspects). Also make sure you are fully aware of what accounts you will use and what permissions are required to do the job. And finally and most importantly, ensure you test it first on s test system, and ensure you have full backups to regress to. We are in same boat (testing phase ion development system) and are ensuring we test and document at each stage. Good luck.
