Validation checks

Mapped

Baseline scenario is available for comparison.

Functional basis is attached to the project profile.

Audit notes

Local notes stay attached to the selected flow for review traceability.

Notes should be evidence-linked and suitable for report appendix review.
LCIA analystREVIEWER

Current rPET is the current inventory evidence focus. Keep its source, assumptions, and validation notes attached before report export.

Materials reviewerREVIEWER

Fossil depletion: Supplier-specific resin routes need one more dataset cross-check. Evidence note: Background resin and electricity datasets are characterized.
