How we review and fact-check Perovscope guides

Every published guide includes a named author, a named reviewer, and a visible last-reviewed date. We use the methodology page to explain what the Fact checked badge means, how often we revisit content, and how buyers can report an error.

What the Fact checked badge means

A fact-checked guide has been reviewed for scope accuracy, buyer-facing clarity, and consistency with the public information and market assumptions we relied on when the guide was last reviewed.

The badge does not mean policy or utility treatment is frozen. In Pakistan, tariffs, export assumptions, and approval practice can change. Buyers should still verify proposal-specific assumptions before award.

Review cadence

We aim to re-review Pakistan policy guides at least every 90 days and broader buyer education guides at least every 180 days, or sooner when a material market or regulatory change affects the guidance.

The date shown on each guide is the most recent review date, not only the original publish date.

How we source guide content

We write guides from a buyer-decision perspective. That means we focus on scope gaps, proposal assumptions, policy constraints, approval responsibilities, and the commercial trade-offs a procurement team needs to understand before committing.

Our source base includes public policy material, supplier-facing documentation patterns, and the recurring comparison issues buyers run into when proposals are presented with different scope, savings logic, or approval assumptions.

When we are not able to support a claim with a durable public source, we present it as a buyer-side caution or a recommendation to verify rather than as a hard fact.

If you spot a factual error, an outdated policy assumption, or a guide that needs a faster review, email esmail@perovscope.com or use the contact page. We would rather correct a guide quickly than leave ambiguous guidance in circulation.
