Explanation:
I've just been having trouble with a car manufacturer too - they are always inventing new words, or new meanings for old and trusted words.... In your context, this looks a possibility, although in reality it's little more than a guess. I think I'd recommend you ask what they DO mean.... BTW, "SOP" is usually "start of production", rather than "...of project".

Updating is something the car manufacturer would almost certainly require of a flow- or progress-chart. At least it looks almost relevant!
