Your client brief is delivered.

The findings link to the interview notes, and the client has the brief and next steps. I’ll handle replies and keep the review updated.

The client changes a requirement. Aera coordinates the update.

Your Manager follows the conversation, asks for the material needed to address the change, and updates the deliverable. The client receives the revised brief, and you know what changed.

Client · Reply received

Please include service renewals as well as new orders. Both use the delivery handoff.

Aera · Follow-up sent

I’ll add renewals to the review. Could you send the renewal checklist so the brief reflects that process?

Client · Checklist received

The checklist is attached. For renewals, the account owner confirms the service dates before handoff.
