Who actually owns it
Beneficial owners, directors, and related parties, and how they change over time.
MANASA / CHECK THE DECISION COLOMBO → EVERYWHERE
Evidence for teams who have to know who is behind a name
Know who
you are really
dealing with.
Give MANASA a name or a pile of documents. Get back who owns and directs what, which records connect to which, and what warning signs exist, with every finding pointing at the page it came from.

One system, four jobs / fictional data
Four jobs.
One system.
Pick whose job it is. The same five stages run in the same order every time. The documents change and the question changes; what the system does with them does not.

Gather the record
The question: should Lakeward Engineering be approved as a supplier? Argus pulls the public record and the bid pack together.

What never changes
- The original is kept. The document itself, forever. Never a summary of it.
- Every fact points at its page. Open the source behind any line of any answer.
- Two names, one thing. It works out when separate records are the same person or company.
- Unresolved stays unresolved. What it cannot settle is marked open, never quietly guessed.
Nothing was rebuilt between those four cases. A new job is a new extraction profile, not a new product. That is the whole point.
What gets checked
From a name to a decision you can defend.
What the warning signs mean
Sanctions, public office, conflicts of interest. Each one shown beside its source, never as a bare score.
What changes after you sign
Keep watching a record after the decision, and log what changes.
The tools
Three tools.
One shared case.
Each tool does one job. Together they turn documents into a decision you can defend.
