The Closure stage formalizes the completion of the project, ensuring that all deliverables have been completed, validated, and accepted by the business, as well as closing the project budget. Here, the achievement of objectives is confirmed and the degree of scope achieved is documented, including benefits and deviations from the initial plan.

An orderly transition of the solution or service to ongoing operations is carried out, along with supporting documentation. In addition, lessons learned are compiled, gathering experiences that will serve as input for improving future projects.

A well-executed closure reinforces confidence in the organization's ability to manage projects and closes the cycle professionally, ensuring the capture of the generated value.
