Data register

Organise received information, checks, gaps and assumptions into a shared reference.

Work programme

Define questions, studies, sequence, assessment criteria, deliverables and responsibilities. A plan is not a completed test report.

Options review

Compare alternatives with applicability, constraints and further evidence requirements. Avoid precise financial claims based on unverified assumptions.

Technical brief

A brief can support engagement with laboratories, equipment suppliers or designers. Define scope, boundaries, output format and acceptance.

Decision note

Connect conclusions to the client’s decision: what is known, what needs validation and what comes next. These are possible outputs, not an automatic package; scope, timing and fees are agreed for each engagement.

Project brief and evidence in; agreed decision-support materials out.
