A review-ready dossier answers questions, not just stores PDFs
Defensible review connects requirement → entity → evidence → validation → exception → corrective action → verification.
Before declaring READY
Scope
Define market, standard, buyer, period, producers, plots and lots included.
Applicability
Separate Required, Conditional, N/A and Buyer-specific under a specific rule version.
Evidence
Preserve source, version, date, validity, entity and reviewer.
Exceptions
Nonconformities, gaps and conflicts need owners and status, not dashboard disappearance.
Correction
Corrective action should produce new evidence and later verification.
Freeze
For a specific audit or shipment, freeze the package that supported the review.
Nova Silva prepares and organizes evidence. Auditors, certifiers, buyers and operators retain their own decision authority.
