A structured operational onboarding framework for utility-scale thermal assets.

Each stage is independently reviewable. Movement between stages is operationally justified, not commercially obligated. Engagements may conclude at any stage on their own terms.

1. Stage 01
   Quick Estimate
   Low-friction recoverable-value indication using unit-class assumptions and operator-supplied coal price.
   Outcome: Indicative ₹/USD recoverable range. No data exchange required.
2. Stage 02
   Request Operational Assessment
   Submit a historian sample under read-only, no-DCS-authority conditions. NDA available on request prior to data exchange.
   Outcome: Acknowledged within one operating day. Data handling under deterministic, audit-reviewable methodology.
3. Stage 03
   Operational Diagnostic Review
   YBG deterministic interpretation of submitted historian record. Thermal-state reconstruction and drift quantification against the unit's own best demonstrated performance.
   Outcome: Returned within 24–48 hours of data receipt. Operator-native interpretive output.
4. Stage 04
   ControlAlign™ Stabilisation Programme
   Operator-native guidance, drift-band monitoring, and best-state envelope alignment. Coexists with existing DCS / APC layers; no control authority assumed.
   Outcome: Stabilised operating envelope, drift-band thresholds, and ongoing interpretive review cadence.
5. Stage 05
   Enhancement & Fleet Deployment
   Fleet-level thermodynamic intelligence, consortium and utility advisory expansion, and progression toward fleet ATP positioning under the same deterministic doctrine.
   Outcome: Fleet-level operational consistency, multi-unit best-state envelopes, and engineering-reviewable performance reporting.
