Documentation and standards
Clear information before checkout.
Researchers should be able to determine what an item is, who made it, what specifications apply, what documentation is available, and what remains unknown before placing an order.
01
Exact identity
Manufacturer, part number, pack quantity, and unit of measure should be explicit.
02
Relevant specifications
Dimensions, material, capacity, compatibility, and other functional specifications should be presented when applicable.
03
Document provenance
Manufacturer literature, technical data, certificates, and Tall Pine records should be clearly distinguished from one another.
04
Honest availability
Stock, backorder, special-order, and discontinued status should not be blurred.
05
No silent substitutions
A different item should not be presented as equivalent without review and disclosure.
06
Lot-specific evidence
When a product is released under a Tall Pine lot, published evidence should identify the lot and the attributes actually examined.
Interpreting lot records
A lot record describes the evidence released for that identified lot under the methods and conditions shown. Coverage can differ by product and lot; an unlisted attribute is not an implied result.
