This factory acceptance testing checklist is free to use, and makes FAT checklists easy to complete, track and share.

A factory acceptance test is a major project milestone where a piece of equipment is demonstrated to meet the contract or purchase order requirements specifications, which are usually created by a systems owner, project manager or project team.

Conducting and completing (successfully) a factory acceptance test is a project and financial milestone, given that a substantial part of the purchase order is usually 'triggered' or payed after a successful factory acceptance test.

This factory acceptance testing checklist enables companies to properly manage their acceptance tests. Many companies fail to properly document, track and share factory acceptance tests - or rush through them to ship or receive product as fast as possible - but being smart and organised about your FAT's pays off big time, in both time and monetary gains.

This factory acceptance testing checklist provides you with a standardised and proven framework for conducting and actioning your FAT's, improving your factory acceptance test procedures and improving product and project quality.
