The company's own artefacts: the proprietary code library with its revision history, commissioning procedures, fault-diagnosis documentation, internal training records showing who has been qualified on them, and a duty description tied to those specific items. Use corporate ownership records and operating evidence for the organization link; use contracts, payroll, tax documents, leave records, and supervisor letters for the foreign employment; use training records, controlled manuals, work samples, and a detailed US assignment for the knowledge claim.
