issues, etc – related to their work?
Challenges & opportunities. (Maximum one page)
State the problem as your team and the client have identified it. Refer to client documents, web pages

project matters. Let your client know the consequences of not doing anything. A concise and creative
executive summary will hook your client to want to know more about what you will do and how you will
do it and WHY it matters. You may use text or bullet points or a combination.
