Inspection rights
How the inspection route works
Inspection is the seller's one factual challenge route inside the internal review process. It can extend the timeline once, but it does not prevent the dispute sequence from reaching an end.
Seller inspection
The seller gets one inspection route
If the seller disputes a submission, the agreement allows one inspection route. That route exists to test the claim, not to delay the process indefinitely.
How inspection is triggered
The request must be made inside the review process and on time.

How inspection is triggered
The request must be made inside the review process and on time.
- The seller can request one inspection during the internal review sequence.
- The request has to comply with the timing rules of the agreement.
- The inspection route does not reopen the whole arrangement or create unlimited extra stages.
What inspection changes
A valid inspection request extends the process once, not repeatedly.

What inspection changes
A valid inspection request extends the process once, not repeatedly.
- The review timeline is extended by the stated inspection allowance.
- The inspection can support or weaken the disputed claim.
- After that, the matter returns to the internal rounds and eventually exhausts.
Extension fee
The unused extension fee sits in the background
The agreement includes a stated extension fee around the inspection route. It exists as part of the contract structure, but it does not turn inspection into a free-ranging tactical option.

Why it exists
The fee structure discourages careless extensions while preserving a genuine inspection route where needed.

Why it exists
The fee structure discourages careless extensions while preserving a genuine inspection route where needed.
- Inspection is supposed to be used for genuine factual disagreement.
- The contract structure aims to keep the internal process moving.
- The process is still directed toward exhaustion within the stated maximum period.
What it does not permit
Inspection is not a tool for endless resistance.

What it does not permit
Inspection is not a tool for endless resistance.
- The seller does not get repeated inspection cycles.
- The buyer is not forced into an open-ended technical argument.
