Public reports

Read the evidence before you read the verdict.

A supplier report should not compress incomplete records into a reassuring score. It should show what was observed, who supplied it, what remains unknown, and which next action protects the buyer’s decision.

Evidence policy

Seven provenance labels, explicit expiry rules, corrections, independence, privacy, and professional boundaries.

Fictional demonstration

Sample supplier evidence report

This public example uses a deliberately fictional lighting supplier, invented identifiers, and invented evidence. It demonstrates report structure only. It does not describe, accuse, rank, or endorse any real company.

Report anatomy

The structure follows the buyer’s next decision, not a generic company-profile template.

  1. 01

    Decision context

    Product, destination market, order stage, value at risk, and the buyer's immediate decision.

  2. 02

    Entity resolution

    Legal name, identifiers, addresses, related names, contracting party, and beneficiary consistency.

  3. 03

    Evidence register

    Every material claim mapped to provenance, source date, scope, status, and limitation.

  4. 04

    Unknown register

    Missing, stale, conflicting, or inaccessible facts that must remain visible.

  5. 05

    Decision gates

    The action required before deposit, sample approval, production, shipment, or market entry.

What to send for a scoped review

A useful review starts with the decision and exact counterparty—not a broad request to declare whether a supplier is “safe.”

  • • Supplier’s Chinese legal name or business-license image.
  • • Alibaba, 1688, website, quotation, or proforma-invoice link or file.
  • • Bank beneficiary and contracting entity shown on payment instructions.
  • • Exact product, model, destination market, order stage, and decision deadline.
  • • The claim you most need to verify: identity, factory control, document scope, payment match, or another defined issue.

What this library will not become

These reports are not a paid supplier leaderboard, a marketplace badge system, or a directory where missing data becomes a low-risk score. Public examples will either use fictional entities or publish only information that has passed a documented public-release review. A report is decision support, not legal advice, certification, or a guarantee.
