FOR DECISIONSView all resources →
Define the decision before the test
Write down what the buyer needs to decide after the pilot. The purpose may be to select a product, approve a larger site, build a distributor demonstration or explore an OEM route. A vague test produces a vague result.
Choose a representative but manageable area
Select a location and substrate that matter commercially but can be controlled and observed. Record the baseline, surrounding conditions and any comparison area before treatment.
Document the complete method
Record preparation, product, amount or coverage, application equipment, dates, drying conditions, lighting and operational changes. If the method cannot be repeated, the pilot is difficult to scale or explain.
Separate observation from commercial claims
Review what the pilot actually demonstrated and what remains unknown. Then decide whether to repeat, expand, change the method or stop. Claims for a market should be supported by the relevant technical evidence and local requirements, not by a single uncontrolled observation.
