Verrano account producer handoff brief
Verrano account producer handoff brief
Owner: Simone Vrabec. Updated Sep 28, 2026.
Open items by area
Everything the incoming producer needs to take over the Verrano Instruments account: 31 open items, 9 commitments made to Verrano and 12 supplier dependencies, each with an owner and a date. Prepared by the departing associate producer, who leaves on Oct 16, for the incoming Sablewood producer and the account director. Simone Vrabec, Executive producer, confirmed the brief with both producers, and Kofi Adjei, Managing director, assigned the three commitments that had no owner.
Speaker travel is highlighted because it holds two commitments that were made in calls and never written down. Supplier follow-ups is the largest area with 9 items.
| Area | Open items | Owner after handoff | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| Supplier follow-ups | 9 | Production coordinator | Reconfirm the Brindlemoor Staging quote after the keynote format |
| Speaker travel | 6 | Incoming producer | Keynote speaker hotel night, confirmed in writing |
| Registration and badging | 5 | Production coordinator | Badge stock for late arrivals |
| Content and sessions | 5 | Show caller | Run of show version 8 by Oct 12 |
| Catering and hospitality | 3 | Production coordinator | Final headcount for the Day 1 plated lunch |
| Budget and invoices | 3 | Sablewood controller | Final invoice for the sales kickoff |
The six areas add up to the 31 open items.
Commitments made to Verrano
Nine commitments were made to Verrano Instruments. Six have an owner. Three had none until Kofi Adjei assigned them, and they show here as unowned until the handoff is accepted.

3 commitments have no owner, and 2 were never written down
Commitments 7, 8 and 9 had no owner on Sep 28. Commitments 7 and 8 are speaker travel promises made in calls with Verrano. They lived only in the memory of the departing producer until this brief wrote them down. If they are not claimed, a keynote speaker could arrive without a confirmed hotel night or transfer.Owner. Kofi Adjei assigned all three. Ask. The incoming producer confirms 7 and 8 with Verrano in writing by Oct 8, and Simone Vrabec sends the next Friday note on Oct 2.
Supplier dependencies
Twelve supplier dependencies are open. Five wait on an input or a decision from Verrano (numbers 1, 6, 8, 9 and 12), and they match the inputs on the supplier status page.

How an item moves
- Open: The item is known
- Written into the brief: Nothing is handed over unwritten
- Claimed: One owner is named
- Closed: Done and logged
An item is not handed over until it is written down and claimed. Commitments 7 and 8 are Claimed today (owner named) and move to Closed once the incoming producer confirms them with Verrano in writing by Oct 8.
Handover checklist
Nothing should be promised to Verrano twice. If a commitment is not in the brief with an owner, it does not get handed over.
