Project Closure & Review
Project Closure
Project closure is one of the most significant stages of the project timeline and it shall be
carried out with utmost accuracy and diligence. It is important to correctly close the project
so that the confirmation on the work completion is obtained. There is sign-off and acceptance
on the project deliverables received from the project clients that is an indication of the project
completion as well as the project success. The formal acceptance is also a sign of
achievement for the management and the resources associated with the project. The closure
phase involved numerous activities and performance measurement is one such activities. The
performance of the project in terms of individual resources, schedule performance, cost
performance, etc. is determined in this phase to understand the strengths and areas of
improvement. The resources get the clarity on the mistakes that they shall not repeat in the
future projects (Brioso, 2015).
It is necessary to capture the lessons learned in a project and the activity is normally
conducted in the project closure phase. The activity is important as the individual learnings
are obtained and reflected upon. The resources get to understand their takeaways from the
project and the lessons from the rest of the team members are also obtained. The compilation
of these lessons learned provides an overview of the project achievements and the areas of
improvement. The management may utilize these lessons learned to have the best project
guidelines and may also avoid the erroneous areas. The post-implementation modifications
and changes may also be done with the aid of the lessons learned.
The project team members may be assigned with the similar projects in the future wherein
they may refers the documented lessons learned to execute a particular task. Also, there are
some of the technical, operational, or managerial concepts and lessons that can be applied to
all the projects irrespective of their type or size. Similarly, the managers and leaders may
utilize the lessons to guide the team members on the best practices and norms to follow in the
project. The organization may also refer these lessons while selecting and prioritizing the
projects. The allocation of the resources can also be done with reference to these lessons as
the specific skills and capabilities may be identified through the analysis of the lessons
learned in a project (Rose, 2011).
