1. Define scope and intent
Start with an area, buyer types and an ICT category. A clear scope prevents broad research from being presented as complete coverage.
2. Observe the primary source
Record the public URL, title, observation date and source wording. When a secondary source points to an original document, verify the conclusion against the original when available.
3. Separate three levels
- Fact: what the source establishes.
- Inference: a useful but contestable interpretation.
- Unknown: what the source cannot establish.
4. Assign confidence and a limitation
Confidence describes support for a specific statement, not future commercial value. The limitation states coverage, representativeness and possible change.
5. Correct and update
Pages show their review date. Send documented corrections to hello@trelta.com.
What the method does not promise
It does not promise complete coverage, exact renewal dates, supplier replacement, time savings, revenue, wins or official relationships with platforms or authorities. The information supports research and is not legal or tender advice.
