If by "delivered" you mean served, yes.
The summons has to be issued by the Clerk of the Court where the case is pending, directing service on the defendant at a specific address. The Plaintiff then forwards the issued summons to the sheriff's service of process unit, or hires a special process server (sometimes called an "elisor") in the Defendant's locale to effect service of process. If successful, a return of service is sent back to the Plaintiff (or his/her/its attorney) documenting service. The original of the return of service is filed with the court where the case is pending, and the Plaintiff or his/her/its attorney retains a copy.
The documentation of service of process is critical to demonstrating that the court has acquired the requisite personal jurisdiction over the Defendant.
