Russian term or phrase: ...согласованное с Компанией Б...
«Место установки/работ» - означает помещения для развертывания Системы или ее части, указанные Компанией А и согласованное с Компанией Б, позволяющее начать установку оборудования.

Я не могу разобраться, что или кто позволяет начать установку оборудования. Компания Б является поставщиком оборудования. Вот мой перевод, который мне не нравится:

“Installation/work site” – facilities, designated and authorized for installation by Company A and agreed upon in consultation with Company B, where a System or a part thereof shall be installed.

Спасибо заранее!

English translation:approved by Company B
Explanation:
I think you can dispense with complicated formulations using "coordinated", etc. A selected the place, and checked to make sure that B agreed with that choice, which means that B "approved" the place, and that's that. It's simpler.

neutral  Nicholas Krivenko: I would love to see YOUR translation of the entire sentence. Your version is basically correct, but has a problem. You are missing a couple of things, but even then the sentence will sound awkward. Rachel's version is correct and sounds truly English.

agree  Nicholas Krivenko: Absolutely! Don't forget us though: the truly, genuinely bilingual crowd.:-) 100% as usual, Rachel! Staying close to the original, sacrificing elegance and, even worse, making them scream "I'm a non-native translation!" is not the way to do it, IMHO.

agree  Aleksey Chervinskiy: in this case really works, what i mean is in some cases you have: утвержденные A и согласованные с B, then you really have to use sth other than "approved"
