Typical tasks

  • Identify the relevant people or organisation roles
  • Determine the jurisdiction to assess
  • Match the issue to a professional speciality
  • Define a follow-up intake or referral

What to include in your brief

  • Plain-language issue summary
  • Requester's role

Choosing the right professional

A useful initial response should identify the provider's competence and the next information needed, not promise a solution to an undefined matter. Confirm qualifications, confidentiality arrangements and a written engagement before requesting substantive work.

Important considerations

  • A broad category can attract an unsuitable provider
  • Unclassified matters may carry hidden deadlines
  • Public descriptions should avoid sensitive case details
