A good product does what it’s supposed to do when put into use. A pump pumps. A valve seals. A machine produces parts within tolerance.
A vehicle transports reliably. This functional test happens when the product is deployed, not when specifications are reviewed. German evaluation asks: does it perform its function in actual operating conditions? Products that look impressive but don’t work, that pass inspection but fail in the field, that meet specs on paper but can’t handle real loads—these are not good products.
When delivering to Germans, expect your products to be tested in use. Be prepared for field trials, installation verification, operational testing. Demonstrate function, don’t just describe features.
