Working with multiple equipment opportunities

This route is for professionals who maintain an active network of equipment owners, sellers and allocation holders. We can work efficiently when each opportunity has a clear source, current information and a defined role for you.

Buying equipment Representing a buyer Offering equipment or seller access Making an introduction An introduction to SecondWatt Working with multiple equipment opportunities Evaluating technical fit

Start with relevant opportunities

Share a brief description of the opportunities that best match current buyer requirements, or that you can substantiate most clearly. We agree the evidence and permissions needed before requesting a larger inventory submission.

Separate your role from the listing

For each opportunity, identify whether you own or control it, hold selling authority, have authorized access, or can make an introduction. A direct conversation with an owner is useful, but does not by itself authorize you to offer or commit the equipment.

A sourcing role follows the applicable sourcing agreement. An introduction-only role follows the applicable referral arrangement. We document differences opportunity by opportunity, using the existing registrations and addenda where applicable.

Keep a usable record

Equipment or program reference, scope, quantity, and location or delivery basis.
The owner, contract holder or authorized source, plus the relationship through which you reach it.
Evidence supporting your role and the opportunity.
Dated availability and price basis, with permitted recipients and any restrictions.

Existing units and future allocations are recorded differently. If identifiers have not yet been assigned, explain the program and the evidence supporting the allocation.

When the same opportunity appears twice

We reconcile identifiers, scope, source permissions and current status. Several authorized representatives may legitimately describe the same equipment. Conflicting ownership, authority or commercial claims must be resolved before the affected opportunity advances.

What we hold, and what stays private

The same rules as for sourcing partners apply. What you provide is held in SecondWatt's internal systems for matching and readiness review. It is not published, and it is shared only with recipients bound by our agreements and within your permissions.

The rules for every relationship

HOW WE ARE PAID

How we are paid

We explain the applicable fee arrangement before an introduction.

Standard seller-paid process. SecondWatt is compensated under a separate source-side agreement. The buyer pays no fee to SecondWatt under the buyer confidentiality agreement.
Separate engagement. A buyer may engage SecondWatt for procurement services under written scope and fee terms. On that route, any compensation SecondWatt receives from the seller side is credited against the buyer's fee, as the engagement terms provide.
Both sides. Compensation from both a source and the buyer on the same transaction requires the buyer's written agreement.
Referrals. Any referral compensation requires its own signed arrangement.
There is no SecondWatt fee for an introductory conversation.
SecondWatt is paid when an acquisition completes, under the signed agreements.
We do not hold deposits or purchase funds.
Payments follow the transaction documents, and independent escrow with written disbursement instructions is our default.

Money and wire controls

Wire instructions are confirmed by a call-back on contact details already on file, never from an email alone.
A late change to account details stops the payment until it is confirmed.
Payments go to the account the transaction documents name, not to an intermediary.
Nothing is released on emailed instructions, side wires or “send it now and we’ll sort the paperwork later.”

WHAT PAUSES AN OPPORTUNITY

What pauses an opportunity

Urgency is never a reason to skip a step. A step is waived only in writing, with the reason recorded. If it can’t be cleared, the opportunity holds until it can.

Authority that can’t be confirmed isn’t established. Authority counts when it is confirmed directly with the named owner or signatory.
A confirmed company is not yet a funded buyer. Inspections, document pulls and taking equipment off the market wait for funding evidence in proportion to the commitment.

We pause when:

An owner or authorized source still isn’t identified once confidentiality is in place.
Several parties offer the same unit at different prices or locations.
Identifiers, nameplate photos or location are withheld indefinitely.
Documents are stale, inconsistent or recycled from another opportunity.
Someone presses for a buyer’s identity, funding evidence or an LOI before showing their own authority.
A deposit is requested outside the agreed escrow, or payment details change late.

We explain what is needed to reconsider it.

YOUR INFORMATION AND RELATIONSHIPS

Your information and relationships

We use confidential submissions to evaluate and progress the relevant requirement or opportunity under the applicable agreements. We do not publish confidential buyer identities, source identities, unit records or commercial terms without permission. Public model research is separate from the private records used for a specific opportunity.

We ask recipients to respect the same limits: no unauthorized forwarding, advertising, use for another buyer or reuse for another project. We document introduced relationships and respect the protections in the applicable agreements.

If your organization has procurement, legal or supplier-onboarding requirements, share them early. We will identify the information and review needed from each side.

Disclosure record. Each release of a serial number, nameplate photo or exact location is recorded with the recipient, the date and the purpose.

Opportunity record. Built as the work happens, before the money moves: who each party is, who represented whom and with what authority, what was reviewed, what was agreed, and where funds were directed.

BEFORE WE MEET

Before we meet

Reply to your SecondWatt contact with brief answers to these five questions. If confidentiality limits an answer, describe the restriction so we can agree how to proceed.

Use the five questions. Start with one or two relevant opportunities, and explain the access you can substantiate.

1What is your company or professional practice, and what is your role in this opportunity?
2Are you buying for your own organization, representing a buyer, supplying equipment, introducing a relationship or evaluating technical fit?
3What requirement or equipment opportunity would you like to discuss, and what decision or timing matters next?
4Who else is involved, and what are you currently authorized to do?
5What can you share now, and what needs confidentiality protection or another party's permission first?

◆

Please do not send bank statements, identity documents, confidential client names or restricted equipment records in an initial inquiry. We will arrange the appropriate next step.
