Contract Term Redlining
Reference evaluation predating the Foundation: a non-independent proof of concept for the IDEA Methodology, not an independent assay. It is recorded here to show the methodology being put to work — honestly, and without claiming a Hallmark.
Pre-Foundation proof of concept for the IDEA methodology.

Not verifiable
This is a proving record, not a Hallmark. There is nothing to verify against the Register, and no embeddable badge: a Hallmark — and with it, verification — exists only once an independent Assayer strikes it and the Engagement is promoted to the production Register.
