Certainly something like that is possible, but I don’t think so given the way OP wrote about it. Especially lines this this: “the deploy tooling isn't entirely compatible”. That doesn’t sound like a critical missing feature (which would somehow be cheap to add). It sounds like a fairly minor roadblock that he expected the other team to solve for him. My guess is that it’s one of those things that might take the other team a week and would take OP 2-3 weeks, so in a little start-up, the other team would obviously do it because it’s more efficient. But in a big corp, asking the other team to make the change is kind of like asking AWS to make the change. (Which could be the case if Amazon is the big corp in this story.)
