Deliver work that remains understandable after it leaves your system.

The simple model
UDR while the document is changing. UDS when the exact selected state matters. BrowserCarrier versions can be opened in a normal browser.
Start small
Pick one document family and one measurable problem. Keep existing required formats and systems in place while you test whether explicit state, lineage and browser-readable delivery make the workflow clearer.
