Question

Sourcing decisions get challenged, sometimes years later. The system needs to be able to answer who saw what, when, and why a bid ranked where it did.

Resolve: what events are recorded, what is immutable, how long records are kept, who can read them, and how a ranking is reconstructed after the model behind it has changed. Note the tension with the distribution-layer decision, which deliberately pushed retention and compliance obligations back onto the retailer — this ticket must find the line where the record is enough to defend a decision without becoming a system-of-record obligation.
