What is a technical expert report?
A technical expert report is a technical document prepared by a specialised expert to analyse a specific issue, such as the need to increase work shifts due to higher production volumes, the reclassification of professional categories or job positions, or the analysis of work rates to improve working conditions.
The report is the result of an on-site data collection process, interviews with stakeholders and the compilation and analysis of relevant company information.
The technical expert reports prepared by Itemsa are based on verifiable facts, data and evidence, and are supported by technical criteria and a proven methodology developed over more than 35 years of experience.
What is a technical expert report used for?
A technical expert report is an essential tool in cases where there is a disagreement between parties, whether or not there is an open legal case, or when a situation requires a specialised, impartial and objective assessment to support organisational, business or strategic decision-making.
Its main purpose is to bring clarity to complex issues through expert technical support, both in judicial and extrajudicial contexts.
Judicial scope
Itemsa’s technical expert reports are used as evidence in legal proceedings where judges or courts require expert opinion to analyse a case and issue a ruling based on objective, solid and verified information.
In addition to drafting the report for submission to court, Itemsa ratifies the report and its content in court, presents it and responds to all questions and issues raised by the parties involved with full technical rigour.
Extrajudicial scope
Beyond judicial proceedings, in cases where no legal action is pending, technical expert reports are an effective tool for resolving disputes out of court, supporting strategic decisions in labour, organisational or production matters, conducting technical assessments and analysing organisational risks or opportunities.
Itemsa’s technical expert reports guarantee rigour and impartiality and provide essential support for conflict management, decision-making and legal defence.
