What is the final stage in bringing a project or phase to a conclusion?

Initiation
Planning
Executing
Closing

The correct answer is: Closing

The final stage in bringing a project or phase to a conclusion is the Closing stage. During the Closing stage, the project team completes all the project deliverables, obtains formal acceptance of the work from the customer, releases project resources, and closes out the project documentation. This stage is critical as it involves confirming that all project work has been completed satisfactorily and that the project objectives have been met. In contrast: - Initiation is the stage where the project is formally authorized, the project scope is defined, and the project objectives are established. - Planning involves setting out the roadmap for the project, including defining the scope, creating a project schedule, and determining the resources needed. - Executing is where the project plan is put into motion, and the project team works on completing the project work.
