In almost all cases this is the longest section of the memo — (e.g., five paragraphs of an eight-paragraph memo, or two pages of a three-page memo). It is directed to those who need to know details. Conclusion o This makes some sort of conclusion from the issues and problems described in the “Background/Discussion” section. It also describes where you intend to go from here Reference Page
