# Evidence-Ready C&I BESS Supplier Watchlist

Status: beta method  
Boundary: this is not certification, not a supplier guarantee and not an order promise.

## Why This Watchlist Exists

Overseas buyers do not only need supplier names. They need to know which suppliers have buyer-readable evidence before RFQ and meetings.

The watchlist is designed to show evidence readiness, not to sell rankings.
