Topic 1: Consequences of Not Properly Closing Projects

During the closing phase, actions must be taken in each of the following areas to properly complete the project: accounting, team member performance reviews, procurements, lessons learned, stakeholder communications, and quality analysis.

Select a real project from your experience or from research you perform in the Library. Critically analyze the selected project and identify one of the areas listed above that was not fully addressed in the closing phase of the project.

Address the following in your primary Discussion board post:

• Briefly describe the project.
• Which of the areas listed in the instructions was not fully addressed during the closing phase?
• What were the consequences of this oversight for the project manager and the organization that conducted the project?
• What could have been done differently to fully address the area you identified? Please focus on processes, resources, and leadership
