Many failures occur between hardware supply, site preparation and integration. Coordination clarifies these boundaries. It does not automatically mean the broker designs or builds controls.
Who supplies each element?
Assign robot, tooling, software, network, handover stations and training. For lifts, doors or warehouse systems identify the interface owner. Unassigned work often becomes a project gap.
Milestones instead of one date
Separate delivery, installation, task tests, training and operational acceptance. Define stage evidence and sign-off. A robot ready to ship is not a process ready to run.
Changes after launch
Record configuration, function and schedule changes. Each new function needs cost, timing and test assessment. Handover includes configuration and support contacts.
