Managing projects
Closing
7.1 The end of the project
The final stage of the project life cycle is the closing of the project once the project
work is finished. A number of activities must be undertaken at this stage.
Project is delivered to users
End of project meeting
Formal sign off of project
Project review meetings
Final report issued
Project team disbanded
The purpose of this stage of the process is:
to ensure that the project is finally completed and conforms to the latest
definition of what was to be achieved and formally agreeing with the customer
that all agreed deliverables have been provided successfully
formal comparison between PID and project outcomes. Review of time, cost
and quality aspects of the project will be reviewed
to assess the effectiveness of the project management process, consider any
significant problems encountered and to learn from the experience
to organising and file all project documentation
to ensure all final payments to suppliers of resources have been made
to formally disband the project team
to provide continuous improvement and feedback – any improvement, even a
small one, is important.
