26 ◾ Project Management Maturity Model
Project or Phase Closure
The nal product or service is delivered informally, with or
without customer acceptance. No procedures exist for disper-
sion of project team members or collection of project data.
Contracts for projects are loosely managed with minimal
reporting requirements delineated in contracts. In large part,
vendors and contractors are managed to end dates only.
There are no procedures for shutting down a project that
has been cancelled. No central system collects, integrates, and
organizes project-related information tools, processes, and pro-
cedures across knowledge areas. Each project manager uses
whatever system she or he desires.
