          "An award, engineering phase, equipment milestone and start of operations each describe a different point in a project lifecycle. The contract scope and responsible legal entity matter as much as the company named in a headline. Design services do not establish that construction has started, equipment supply does not prove full-plant EPC delivery, and an initial operating milestone is not the same as completed commercial operation."

Acceptance tests must demonstrate water, energy, material-quality and safety criteria. To understand long-term asset performance, the operating responsibility, maintenance term and contractor warranty boundaries should also be read with current contract documents."
