- Criticality: Regulatory compliance safeguards the agency and clients from legal exposure and ensures ethical communication.
5. Visual & Design Quality Assurance
- Review tables, figures, and infographics for clarity, labeling, numbering, legends, and readability.

- Criticality: As the last reviewer, QC prevents errors from reaching external stakeholders and ensures brand integrity.
9. Confidentiality & Ethical Compliance
