As a project manager, you have a responsibility to customers and team members to close your project formally, as well as practically. By definition, a project has a beginning and an end. But without a formal closure process, project teams can fail to recognize the end, and then the project can drag on—sometimes at great expense. Project closure ensures that:
·Outcomes match the stated goals of the project.
·Customers and stakeholders are happy with the results.
