An adverb modifying a noun or an expression

[Fabulous_Learner]

Hello,

I would like to know whether the structure of this sentence is correct, and whether we can enhance it somehow:

An important feature (or aspect) in our project is the provision of auditing separately from the development.

Please notice that I place an adverb as a modifier for the expression "the provision of auditing". Is that ok?

Thanks.

I would use "the separate provision" somehow, or "... is the provision of auditing, separate from development". I would also say "An important feature of our project ..."

Hello,

Thanks emsr2d2 for your reply.

1- If I use "the separate provision of auditing", can I say:
An important feature of our project is the separate provision of auditing from the development?
It seems to me that the word "from" lies a bit far from "separate".

2- If I use "separate from development", I am wondering why you didn't write "separately from development".
separate is an adjective, and separately is an adverb.

3- Why did you write "from development" not "from the development". When would the noun be written without the article "the", and when with it?

Thanks
