Offering equipment or seller access

This route is for professionals who can source equipment or represent a seller. Tell us whether you hold selling authority or an allocation, have authorized access, or can introduce the principal.

What makes an opportunity useful

We need a traceable relationship to the equipment or program, enough information to assess a relevant requirement, and clear permission to use what you provide. Technical experience is valuable, and we record it separately from authority to offer a specific asset.

  • Existing equipment: configuration, identifiers where available, location, condition basis, scope and dated availability.
  • Seller representation: the owner or authorized principal, your role, supporting authority and a practical way to confirm it.
  • Production or refurbishment allocation: issuer or packager, contract holder, program reference, scope, schedule and assignment conditions. Serial numbers are not expected for a future production slot that has not yet been assigned. A rebuild slot identifies the engine or core being rebuilt.
  • Each opportunity: the material intermediaries, who expects to compensate them, the approved price basis and any disclosure restrictions.

How introductions work

We use the applicable sourcing agreement, and register the opportunity and the fee arrangement before an identifying introduction. We present a buyer requirement anonymously first where required, obtain your acceptance, then follow the agreed introduction process. SecondWatt attends the introduction meeting and coordinates the meetings that follow.

We respect registered source relationships. Confirmation with an owner or packager can be arranged with you involved, subject to the agreed protections. We do not need to remove a legitimate representative to establish the principal's role.

What we hold, and what stays private

To match demand to your supply and keep it current, SecondWatt keeps the following in its internal systems:

  • your company, signatories and agreement terms;
  • each unit's model, identifiers, ratings, hours and starts, location, condition basis and photographs;
  • your authority documents, and the participants in each opportunity;
  • dated pricing and availability; and
  • the history of the opportunities offered to you.

This information is used for matching, for preparing introductions and for the readiness summaries we give recipients. It is not published:

  • identifiers and owner identities are disclosed only as the agreements and your permissions allow;
  • pricing is shared only on the basis you approved; and
  • your fee terms are not shown to buyers.

Submitting equipment does not create a public listing.

Keeping opportunities current

Tell us promptly when availability, authority, pricing or scope changes. We ask for an availability refresh at least every 14 days, and we confirm current status before a specific presentation or commitment. An opportunity with unresolved material gaps may stay on hold while we request the missing evidence. When the same equipment reaches us through more than one route, we reconcile identifiers and authority before it advances.

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, and describe one or two opportunities that best show your role.

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