It's funny seeing this. I work in one of those big corporates and maybe I can share a little about how they work. From what I've seen this could be completely normal or a huge red flag. We recently looked at partnering with an analytics company for a credit scoring solution. The idea was to use their SaaS and have a contract in place regarding use, pricing, up-time etc (Corporates will want that). When we kicked off the procurement process internally an army of people got involved. Their was a project manager, a number of lawyers. I believe their were audit and compliance people their too. They ended up creating a project just to figure out what needed to be figured out. Here's where it get's helpful. We couldn't even share what we needed to know with the SaaS team or product owner because that could compromise the investigation. In this case, the corporate's concerns were genuine, numerous and required rigorous answers. In another case I watched an exec try to figure out how a KYC solution provider has achieved the level of accuracy in identifying ad-hoc documents in the hope of solving the problem with internal resources. If I were you I would not send them your code. Rather say would not be closed to them asking questions and you answering by showing code as long as it's not the secret-sauce. Just know that for our scoring problem we actually had to see how the decision was being made because we're subject to a ton of legislation around that.
