It is fundamentally important that the person compiling the report be the same person who administered the tests. You can learn a lot from just watching them, alone. The quantitative analysis will often trigger memories from the session. That's why we write the quick paragraph for each result where you can enter your own notes and speculations about why things worked well, or didn't work well. Thanks for reading.
