✅ Selmo project preparation – Checklist before engineering start

This checklist helps to clarify all basic requirements, before starting the modeling and implementation of a project in Selmo Studio.

Objective:

  • clear technical prerequisites,

  • complete process definition,

  • secure scheduling,

  • avoidance of gaps in the model.
