Translating Corporate Strategy into Project Strategy: Realizing Corporate Strategy Through Project Management

Close Out Program

At the close of a program or project, a review of the baseline and most recent versions of the operational vision, management plans, and business case is undertaken and the findings are documented in a lessons learned report of the program or project. The effectiveness of the program or project strategy to achieve the objectives of the program is an important element of the review. A program close report is also put together, in which the business case is validated to confirm the extent to which the expected benefits are being delivered and is likely to cover strategy.
