Commissioning design
Whether you are working with an internal design team, or commissioning external designers, they will need a clear and concise brief in order to deliver what you need. They can't read your mind so use the brief to explain as much as possible about what the purpose of your brief is. Spending time on writing the brief also helps you clarify what the aim of the project is and why you are doing it.
It's worth the effort, because you'll end up with a much better result.Ěý They will also need to understand the scope of the work in order to provide you with an estimate.Ěý
