performed and products delivered. Closeout is completed when all administrative actions have been
completed, all disputes settled, and final payment have been made. Therefore, the PM shall complete
the following:

• PM shall closely monitor the POP and when it ends.
• Include the CA in the Project Closeout Kickoff 90 days prior to the end of the POP. The CA will
develop the Contract Closeout Action Plan portion of the PM’s Project Closeout Plan.
