Installation is a milestone. Readiness is the objective.
Technical acceptance should be planned long before site installation.
FAT, SAT, commissioning and handover are engineering activities, not simply administrative gates. Acceptance criteria should connect system functionality with expected operating conditions.
Successful delivery means demonstrating that the agreed technical and operational requirements have been met.
A practical approach
Start with operational requirements. Establish comparable criteria. Validate technical performance before committing to a purchase or acceptance decision.
