When to do Release Resources in a project
Submitted by philzs on Sun, 03/15/2015 - 13:35
I got a question from Simplilearn where it says since pmbok 5, Release resources is not anymore in Close project.
I took Rita book and looked at Rita's Chart and it says "Release resources as work is completed"
but that's pretty weird as we need the ressources to be involve in the last lesson learns un project closing
I would need advices on that one
thanks

OK thanks Admin,
OK thanks Admin,
I don't know why Simplillearn said it's not part of closing anymore,
it's sounds good to me also
Here is the Sequence in Rita Process chart
Confirm work is done to requirements
Complete procurement closure
Gain final acceptance of the product
Complete financial closure
Hand off completed product
Solicit feedback from the customer about the project
Complete final performance reporting
Index and archive records
Gather final lessons learned and update knowledge base

In PMBOK, it's very clear that one of the key benefit of "Close Project or Phase" process is the release of organization resources to pursue new endeavors (PMBOK, p100).
