    4 This document lays out the procedures and performance requirements for commissioning the SHARK-NIR instrument. Specifically, it lists the on-telescope activities needed to bring SHARK-NIR online for scientific exploitation starting from unpacking the boxes at LBT.
     4This commissioning planning document lays out and details the activities needed to bring SHARK-NIR online for regular scientific exploitation. The document incorporates activities starting from the unpacking of the boxes at the LBT mountain bay to the early science /science verification at its final destination on the LBT platform. Although called the commissioning document, it lists the pre-commissioning, commissioning, and science verification activities.

    66The commissioning is broadly divided into four phases:
