I realise that "Abnahmegesellschaft" is in the glossary as "acceptance authority", but can't quite work out what the phrase is getting at in this context. Thanks for your thoughts.

Acceptance and commissioning services provider
Not sure, Stephen, but it looks like a possibility.

http://www.intl-mps.com/index.php?fa=services.equipment

I.C.I. focuses on providing our customers with a complete service. From power distribution to the bit level of a PLC program, we offer a single source of responsibility which encompasses machine commissioning.
Our Machine Commissioning services are always in high demand as we apply a structured approach to start-ups. From quickly identifying a faulty circuit to monitoring a PLC program, we focus all of our combined expertise with one goal in sight...production.
http://icielectrical.com/machine_commissioning.html
Startup and Commissioning Services - We know motors, switchgear and breakers
Ensure your equipment is ready to work properly
In today’s marketplace, your operating requirements require complex, multi-vendor and multi-product solutions. Components are often manufactured in several locations and then shipped, assembled and tested in another. Even with careful factory testing, final commissioning can occur only at your site, where the new equipment must tie into your existing system.

gestellt - provided, I think. The trouble is it would then be provided by an acceptance service provider.

Note from asker:
| Thanks for the input Kim. I'll have to ask for a bit more specific context from the customer. I agree, your interpretation does seem to be the sense of the term "Abnahmegesellschaft" here, and fits with the context of installing machines. What you put for "gestellt" here? It sounds like they are there on a consultancy basis, but that seems a bit of a stretch from the vague "stellen". |
4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer.
Comment: "The client was happy enough with this solution, but didn't provide any additional information to clarify the context unfortunately. I used "on behalf of" for "gestellt", as this was the most generic term I could come up with."
