BESS QA/QC Toolkit

Make readiness a traceable evidence decision—not a status color.

Templates, controlled JSON policies, passing examples, and Python audits connect requirements, checks, evidence IDs, revisions, owners, deadlines, closeout, and acceptance.

Engineering question

How can project requirements, checks, evidence IDs, revisions, owners, deadlines, and acceptance decisions remain traceable through BESS delivery?

Gate FAT, SAT, commissioning, closeout, document control, calibration traceability, and handover evidence with inspectable policies and scripts.

System and evidence boundary

Evidence control spans the delivery lifecycle.

Each gate leaves project authority with the responsible reviewers while making missing, stale, inconsistent, or unapproved evidence visible.

Verified results

Figures keep scenario, units, source, and evidence class attached.

Every visual below points to its source data or retained source format and to the release- or commit-specific implementation behind it.

Validation and evidence

What passed, what was demonstrated, and what remains unvalidated.

One hundred forty-two tests and four subtests passed across templates, readiness, deadlines, completeness, evidence, calibration, punch-list, document-control, and handover audits.

Template quality

35 Markdown templates passed structural validation for titles, explanatory context, table separators, and column consistency.

Automated suite

142 tests and 4 subtests passed across status, deadlines, completeness, readiness, evidence, calibration, punch-list, document-control, and handover controls.

Passing examples

Repository examples exercise clean commissioning evidence, calibration history, punch-list closeout, document control, readiness, and handover decisions.

Authority boundary

The scripts report controlled findings; they do not approve work, waive a requirement, interpret a contract, or replace an authorized acceptance decision.

Shortest verified path

Pin the audited source before running it.

Verification environment: Python 3.14.6 on Windows 11. Commands are concise entry points; repository documentation remains authoritative for setup details.
