Question: Which of the following is the correct order of actions that you take during the closing processes?

Options:

A. Get formal acceptance, release the team, write lessons learned, close the contract

B. Write lessons learned, release the team, get formal acceptance, close the contract

C. Get formal acceptance, write lessons learned, hand over deliverable to stakeholder(s), close the contract

D. Get formal acceptance, close the contract, write lessons learned, release the team

Explanation : Answer (c) Get formal acceptance, write lessons learned, hand over deliverable to stakeholder(s), close the contract. One important fact is that you need your team’s help when you’re writing the lessons learned. That’s why you can’t release the team until the lessons learned are documented and added to the organizational process assets. Also, the last thing you do on the project is close the contract. Remember, release the project team is no longer part of closing as per the new RDS study conducted by PMI.
