An organization requires disclaimers, liability statements, severity ratings, and recommended solutions in one final deliverable to meet strict guidelines. Which option meets these requirements best?
Place all disclaimers in the introductory letter and add brief risk scores in a separate appendix. Include a basic statement of liability in the appendix as well.
Email disclaimers to the client as a separate note. In the deliverable, list findings but omit detailed severity ratings. Include a few suggested fixes in a concluding section.
Put liability statements in a sign-off form and exclude severity definitions. Send disclaimers after the deliverable is shared, relying on summaries to convey risk levels.
Combine disclaimers, liability statements, severity definitions, and recommended solutions in the main report while referencing relevant industry standards. Provide a concise acceptance statement to finalize the document.
Ensuring disclaimers and liability statements appear in the primary part of the deliverable with clear definitions for severity and recommended solutions aligns with the organization’s guidelines. Separating these items or sending them by email reduces clarity. Omitting severity rating details can also diminish the report’s usefulness and compromise legal requirements. The option that includes disclaimers, liability statements, severity definitions, and recommendations in the main document satisfies the organization’s specifications.
