Factory Acceptance Test : FAT is to verify that the system and its components function properly that all manufacturing assembly software generation and configuration have been done correctly and completely and that the system performance is in compliance with the agreed upon procurement specification

Site Acceptance Test : SAT takes place after the complete installation and final configuration. This test should repeat FAT or an acceptable subset of the test to verify that no damage occurred during shipment and installation
