Apology Email to Client for Late Delivery (Short Version)

Use this template when a project deliverable, product shipment, or service has not been delivered to your client by the agreed-upon deadline. This email is appropriate for professional client relationships where you need to acknowledge the delay, take responsibility, and outline a clear path to resolution. It works well for both minor delays of a few days and more significant timeline overruns. A shorter version for quick sending.
