Warning Letter for Delay in Work Submission

Dear Sir/Madam,

I want to let you know that I am totally frustrated about your team’s delay in sending the XXX reports. I had requested the report to be sent on the 4th of every month, and I do not see it coming until the 10th of every month. Haven’t we agreed on the timelines?

Though there are apologies sent and request to extend the deadline for every month are raised, this can not be happening every month.

Please tell me what is required from me to make this possible? How do I respond to this?

Sincerely,

Your Name, Designation

Warning Letter for Delay in Work Submission

Dear Sir/Madam,

I want to warn you that I am frustrated about your delay in completing work every week. I had requested you to complete the work in any case until the 10th of every month. Haven’t we agreed on the timelines?

Though there are apologies sent and request to extend the deadline for every month are raised, there must not be an excuse anymore.

Please tell me what is required from me to make this possible? So I may not see any further delays.

Sincerely,

Your Name, Designation
