le travail DES sites pilotes


Explanation:
La façon que la phrase est formulée fait croire qu'il y a plusieurs sites, si non on écrira "in THE current pilot site work"

--------------------------------------------------

The text talk about expertS exploring, groupS, exchangeS and trendS and commodity saleS all suggesting a global approach to a large range of subjects. It would be absolutely incorrect to assume that the text is talking about ONE project and therefore ONE pilot site. Unless of course there is prior or subsequent reference in the text to one and ONLY one project. As an anglophone I see the text in this light

To make things even clearer, a translator would say in English that he does document translation work for example but this does not refer to just one document.

13 mins
  -> merci
disagree  BusterK: it is clearly stated "site" and not sites ! Il y a peut-être plusieurs sites, mais un seul pilote (c'est l'intérêt du pilote).
1 hr
  -> the words "pilot site" in this context are used to describe the work and therefore remain in the singular and as the text does not refer to ONE sole project there could be any number of pilot sites, and the work on those sites takes no "s"
agree  danièle davout: travail de site pilote
