Executive summary with key findings and prioritized recommendations

Part of WiFi Surveys (Ekahau). Last reviewed October 2026.

Quick answer

What is Wi-Fi Survey Executive Summary and Recommendations?

A Wi-Fi survey executive summary is a short, plain-language document that states what the survey found, how it compares with your requirements, and which actions matter most. Deploris writes it for non-specialists, with ranked recommendations, estimated effort, and open risks, so leadership can decide without reading every heatmap.

WHAT THE WORK COVERS

What Wi-Fi Survey Executive Summary and Recommendations includes.

  • 01A one-page statement of scope, method, areas covered, and any areas excluded or not accessible
  • 02Key findings expressed against your written requirements, with the evidence sheet referenced for each one
  • 03Prioritized recommendations ranked by impact and effort, such as must fix, should fix, and consider
  • 04Risk register for items the survey could not resolve, such as unverified wall types or occupancy changes
  • 05Sequencing advice that separates quick configuration changes from work needing hardware, cabling, or downtime
  • 06Next-step options: remediation, validation survey, or monitoring, each described by scope rather than price

HOW WE DELIVER IT

How it is delivered.

  1. 1

    Test findings against requirements

    We review every result against the thresholds and goals agreed at the start, so the summary answers your questions rather than listing everything we measured.

  2. 2

    Rank by impact and effort

    Findings are grouped and ordered by how much they affect users and how hard they are to fix, with dependencies noted so the order of work makes sense.

  3. 3

    Write for the decision maker

    We draft in plain language, keeping technical detail in appendices, and mark each recommendation with the evidence that supports it.

  4. 4

    Review with your team

    The engagement manager walks your stakeholders through it, captures questions, and issues a final version that reflects the agreed priorities.

WHEN IT FITS

When this is the right deliverable.

Scenario 01

A director or CFO must approve Wi-Fi spend and needs a clear case without wading through heatmaps and spectrum captures.

Scenario 02

You need to brief several teams, such as IT, facilities, and operations, and want a single agreed list of what to fix first.

Scenario 03

Your auditor or insurer asks for documentation of the wireless assessment, and you want a summary that supports your compliance evidence.

QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions.

What should be in a Wi-Fi survey executive summary?
It should state scope and method, summarize findings against your requirements, rank recommendations by impact and effort, and list open risks. It should be readable by non-specialists, reference supporting evidence, and avoid raw data dumps. Detailed heatmaps and tables belong in appendices for engineers.
How long is the executive summary?
Usually a few pages, depending on how many sites and areas are in scope. The goal is a document a decision maker can read in one sitting. Technical detail sits in appendices and the project file. A multi-site engagement may add a one-page rollup per location.
Do the recommendations include cost estimates?
We rank by impact and effort and describe scope, but we generally do not state prices in the summary, since costs depend on your suppliers and labor rates. The bill of materials and any remediation proposal give you the data to build a budget. Cost lines can be added if agreed in the written scope.
Can the summary be shared with auditors or vendors?
Yes, it is written to be shared. It documents method, findings, and open risks, which can support your compliance evidence, though it does not certify compliance. If you want a version without site-specific details for external parties, tell your engagement manager and we can prepare a redacted copy.
