Disaster Prevention
I'm having a little difficulty with the best way to translate the term "producto" in this context.
It is for a proposal about management and prevention of natural disasters. There is a proposal and then the expected results or outcomes.
Two examples in the document are:
Producto(s) Esperados
Producto 1, Producto 2 (etc.)
My best guess is among the following:
outcome
output
results
(with or without the word "expected")
I think "expected outcome," or "outcome 1," "outcome 2" is the best way to render it, but I would really like some input.
More context:
Producto(s) Esperados: Se mejora la capacidad de gestión de manejo de desastres en el Caribe.
And, from the table of contents:
II. Marco de Resultados y Recursos
Producto 1....
Plan de adiestramiento diseño y esablecido....
Producto 2.....
(and so on)

Outcome
Yes, I would be inclined to go for outcome, and 'expected outcome(s)' when esperado(s) is mentioned.
4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer.
Comment: "Lindsay, thanks. This was the right answer. I only used "expected outcome" when it was used in the source document, otherwise, just "outcome.""

Deliverable
I have seen this use in many RFPs. Not a very appealing word but it is commonly used in fields like this, especially when reference is made to "non-physical" products.

: Correct answer and common recent usage, but as you say, not very appealing and I just don't like it.

This is interesting, neilmac... isn`t it? Translating those "deliverables" into Spanish can also be some sort of a hot potato. However, I felt it was my duty to put this hot potato on the plate, lol... Regards!!
