The team’s ability to project what’s going to happen accurately is invaluable. Their developers are of much better quality.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

My advice is to them is to keep their engagement level high at all levels.

QA team should know more about the product. Ask a lot of questions. Clients are always willing to help and respond. The only way to get more knowledge about the product is by asking questions.

No assumption. Better to ask even for just confirmation of your understanding.

They could be more proactive on the finetuning side of things.
