Fady,
This is a great discussion point. From the example you provided, it is definitely violating the NDA or CDA agreement that the consultant and previous company. Not only are they disclosing that company’s name, they are also indirectly exposing the company and possible tools of how they use to conduct business that can be easily start a law suit. In my experience, working within J&J and with the large volume of contracts that they process every day, all the documentation is generated in-house. I have worked in projects that require 25 CDA’s for different suppliers and even if they provide a draft, the contract department will use that draft are a reference and will develop its own document. And from your example, it definitely shows why companies reduce the risk by just creating their own documents to reduce risk.
