Let's say I have an innovative equipment design that adds multi use functionality to a brewery. I provide this design to a equipment manufacturer to make for me custom. Let's say this piece of equipment would be attractive for many other breweries.
What normally happens, would I own rights to the design? Does the equipment manufacturer own the rights? Does anyone usually care or document (either party)?
I was hoping negotiate a deal to get it made at materials cost only, test and warranty feedback then the manufacturer can then own the final design to sell to anyone else.
What is reasonable in the end in the brewery world?
Thanks.
