Generally, an arbitrator's award does not need to set forth findings of fact, conclusions of law, or the reasons for an award. However, a disclosure of findings and the reasons must be given if the applicable statute, arbitration agreement, or submission so requires. When the arbitrator does provide the basis for decision in the form of an opinion or letter, that document becomes a part of the award.
