Qualification Evidence supports recognition of a Node, Qualified Node, Service Provider, or Qualified Service Provider for a governed function or Non-Functional Characteristic. In the Governed Node Service Market, Qualification Evidence provides the basis for recording, reviewing, and trusting a Qualification Profile.
Qualification Evidence may include conformance test results, certification records, security assessment records, service-level test results, interoperability test results, deployment evidence, residency evidence, sovereignty evidence, audit findings, operational history, or governance approval records.
Qualification Evidence supports eligibility. It does not record that a specific item of governed work occurred. Completed governed work is recorded through a Work Performed Event and linked to supporting evidence through an Evidence Reference.

Qualification Evidence differs from a Work Performed Event. Qualification Evidence supports eligibility. A Work Performed Event records completed governed work.
Qualification Evidence should use Evidence References when the market does not require the full evidence payload.
A conformance test result supports recognition that a semantic validation Node satisfies the required interface and Interoperability criteria for a governed function.
