    PMP · Question 68 · Task 17: Plan and manage project/phase closure or transitions

    A project is nearing completion with deliverables accepted by the customer. However, there are still outstanding vendor payments, some team members need performance evaluations completed, lessons learned need to be captured, and project artifacts need to be archived. The sponsor wants to officially close the project quickly to free up resources for other initiatives. What should the project manager do FIRST?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Create a comprehensive closure checklist to ensure all administrative, financial, and knowledge management activities are completed

    B.

    Prioritize the financial closure activities since vendor payments are most critical

    C.

    Release team members immediately since the deliverables have been accepted

    D.

    Proceed with official closure since the customer has accepted the deliverables

    How to approach this question

    Project closure requires systematic completion of all closure activities including financial, administrative, resource, and knowledge management tasks before official closure.

    Full Answer

    Effective project closure requires systematic completion of all closure activities including financial settlements, resource transitions, performance evaluations, lessons learned, and artifact management.

    Common mistakes
