Project Final Report Template
Document Guidelines
The Project Final Report is intended to concisely summarize the outcomes of a project and is the final
document in the CCS Project Management Methodology. A Project Final Report is used to document
project successes, lessons learned and performance in order to signal improvement in project delivery for
the future. This template outlines the content and format of final reports to be used for all information
systems projects. The Project Management Office is your resource for completing this document.
A Project Final Report reflects the formal and informal feedback collected from project stakeholders and
participants throughout the project. Commonly, a Project Post-Mortem is held to explore the experiences
of the participants of the project in more detail. The information collected in this way should align with
the details included in the Project Final Report.
The Project Final Report is to be developed between the project manager and the project director and
should be circulated to project stakeholders and participants for feedback. Finally, the project sponsor
should sign off on the details of the Project Final Report before it is forwarded to the Project Management
Office for archiving.
The project sponsor is responsible for presenting the Project Final Report at a meeting of the Information
Systems Steering Committee.
