Description
When specifying who (like manufacturers, suppliers, and warranty guarantors) is responsible for things, the IfcRelAssignsToActor has this dedicated purpose of linking the organisation to the entity.
However there exists some psets which double up this information, potentially creating two sources of truth for the organisation name.
Two examples:
- Pset_ManufacturerTypeInformation.Manufacturer
- Pset_Warranty.PointOfContact
Also, Guarantor is not available as an actor role. It should probably be added too.
