Staging is the activity or practice of presenting the performance in construction or operation. The Staging Area is the designated area where supplies and construction equipment are positioned for access to a construction site.
Reference Definition by Aiche.org: Staging means assembling, testing, and operating a process control system in a controlled environment prior to plant implementation according to a test plan to ensure that it performs properly and meets all requirements of the functional specification. Staging is performed after the standard vendor system acceptance test has been conducted and is done under the end user’s supervision to thoroughly exercise all essential control system function.
