panel sample / sample panel
They are obviously still only thinking about this building. Before going ahead with construction, the client has to approve the materials used. Of major aesthetic importance are the cladding panels, and clients want to see actual samples, specimens, not just diagrams or photos. This often involves building a section of wall, including windows, to show how everything fits together and what the colour, texture, etc. look like in the light of day. So they are going to see a new "presentation" of the sample (or samples), together with elevation drawings, presumably to see the "calepinage" of the panels (how they are set out on the wall, in relation to windows etc (one tries to have multiples of panel width matching multiples of window width, to avoid ugly joints, etc.).
Témoin - cf appartement témoin = model/show/sample apartment.
Similar for OTIS. OTIS won't build a sample lift for them, but CAN take the client to see equivalent lifts on other projects.

outside indicator light/ OTIS
Without more context this is a bit of a guess - could they be talking about the outside of the lift and describing the system for indicating its arrival? Alternatively they could be talking about the front of a building but that doesn't seem to make sense. As has already been said, OTIS is the lift manufacturer.

Panel indicator
Or something like that. Isn't this the indicator outside the lift doors that tells you which floor the lift is at?
Otis is certainly the lift manufacturer.
As for a cedilla on facade, my dictionary says it's optional (and what percentage of English speakers knows how to add a cedilla from a keyboard?).
