When writing a technical report, is it necessary to explain what is written in upcoming chapters? For example in my introduction chapter, I may have a sub-chapter called "Forthcoming chapters" which will explain what each forthcoming chapter will discuss. So something like "My methods chapter will explain the methods of my investigations..." I've seen examples where people have done this but to me it all seems "obvious" about what a methods chapter should contain. Does it improve the technicality, eloquence or the professionalism of the report?
