Who it fits

Industrial and engineering firms, including ones no longer trading, that hold the rights to their project, maintenance and CAD records.

What to watch for

Customer or supplier records qualify only where the company holds the rights and no confidentiality agreement stands in the way (Who Sells Data, Oct 14, 2026).
