Zunächst sage ich Ihnen verbindlich zu, die in Ihrem Briefing PR Agency B&K Tasks 1 –14 abzudecken bzw. abdecken zu können.
I find the entire sentence quite confusing with the verbs sagen zu and abzudecken together and then abdecken as well!!!!
Any help appreciated.

I find it a strange sentence, too, and it looks as though there's a verb (along the lines of genannt) missing between Briefing and PR Agency...

First of all, I engage to carry out the PR Agency B&K Tasks 1-14 listed in your briefing.
