Research objectives
Ofcourse the audience of your research report can follow up the details of your report without having the research objectives on their finger tips. In essence, clearly state the research objectives; be sure to number them so they can easily be referred to.

The research design
Here you have to present a candid and clear explanation of your research Methodology. That is, every procedure deployed to process your data gathering, data analysis and research findings should be included in this section of your report.

Summary of research findings
The research findings answers respectively to the research objectives. So in presenting your research findings, you must be sure to number them to correspond with the research objectives in your report.

Conclusion
This is the overall conclusion of the research outcome. A generalized statement to confirm or nullify the hypothesis of the research, an issue, cause and effect or a solution to a problem. The report must have this to indicate that the research was actually conclusive.

To wrap up, research report may begin with the conclusion of the research and proceed to the other components or follow the procedure as aligned above. What matters is the simplicity, clarity and being intentional to catch and sustain the interest of the report audience and ofcourse ensure to include all the information needed in the report.
