A public-source research index tracking industrial facility acquisitions, closures, divestitures, and expansions without collapsing corporate events into regulatory conclusions.

Sentinel separates three evidence layers—corporate control, facility identity, and regulatory authorization—and turns their mismatches into bounded diligence questions. Its examples include a tire plant closure, a biotech expansion, and an acquisition where the regulated legal entity may have stayed the same.
