What to send for a useful product-fit review

Loads: running watts, startup watts, hours per day, and which loads are truly critical.
Existing equipment: complete model numbers and current manuals for batteries, inverter/charger, panels, controller, and transfer equipment.
Site: indoor/outdoor location, temperature range, available space, mounting surface, access, and distance between components.
Electrical context: battery voltage, AC service, critical-load panel or transfer approach, PV string plan, and any utility interaction.
Project constraints: target runtime, budget, expansion plan, shipment access, and desired completion date.
Open decisions: list every assumption that still needs confirmation instead of treating it as settled.
