Project Closing Process - The Project Evaluation Report
By Manjeet Singh
At the end of the project, write a project evaluation report. Such a report can contain the following sections:
- Project performance: a comparison of what the project achieved with what was in the original plan (cost, schedule and outcome). Explain all deviations from the original plan.
- Team member appraisals (should be confidential): provides an appraisal of the performance of team members during the project.
- Lessons learned: provides information about what worked and did not work during the project.
- Recommendations for future projects.
TIP: Store all the documents that you produced during the project in your knowledge base for use in a similar project in the future.
