# Company A custody flow

For **Company A's invented owner-run path**, the preparation environment is inside the owner's controlled systems. This custody table shows what moves; it is not a claim that the whole Clean Room pilot is available as a finished product.

| Object or stage                    | Owner                            | Preparation environment                                                                    | Buyer                                                                | Permission before movement                                                                          |
| ---------------------------------- | -------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Controlled source and working copy | Keeps the original               | Receives only the authorized working copy inside owner control                             | Receives neither                                                     | Owner-approved scope, access and retention rules                                                    |
| Inventory report                   | Reviews the proposed report      | Produces the scoped report                                                                 | Receives the approved report only                                    | Confidentiality and owner-approved disclosure                                                       |
| Scrubbed sample S1                 | Approves the version and release | Produces the permitted specimen                                                            | Receives S1 for ordinary inspection; returns allowed findings        | Identified recipient, inspection purpose, transfer and output limits                                |
| Optional fitting-room result       | Reviews any proposed output      | Pilot design: separately authorized scoring with networking off and bounded numeric output | Supplies approved scoring code and receives only the approved result | A new express test permission and an available pilot arrangement; absent from S1's inspection scope |
| Licensed delivery D1               | Approves the final release       | Produces the specified licensed copy and manifest                                          | Receives D1 under the signed license                                 | Final scope, recipient, use and delivery terms                                                      |

Read the path in order: the source becomes a controlled preparation copy; an approved report or scrubbed S1 may cross to the buyer for its stated purpose; permitted findings return for a decision. Any model-scoring branch needs separate authorization before it runs. After the final license and release approval, D1 crosses to the buyer as the licensed package. The raw original and identity map remain owner-side throughout this illustrated path.

A managed or buyer-operated preparation arrangement can put different people at the controls. Agree its access and custody separately rather than assuming this owner-run diagram describes it. Likewise, S1 or a corrected S2 is still an evaluation version; neither automatically becomes D1.

The companion `.mmd` file is an original diagram source for the same path. The table and text above are its readable fallback. No native UI or completed transaction is asserted.
