The answer was usable but I would have liked a term suited to the three levels of agreement: mantel-, deel- en maatwerkovereenkomst, indicating an increasing level of detail.

agree  writeaway: but Asker's closing comments are beyond comprehension-virtually no context and then Renate was supposed to guess what Asker actually had in mind? Thanks was the only comment necessary

individually tailored agreement


Explanation:
