How to use the project closure template
Too many organizations fail to meet their projects’ original goals, stay within budget, and deliver projects on time. Since governance is the most critical success factor for organizational success, a closure checklist is imperative to ensure that proper completion of administrative, project, and portfolio data can be shared across teams. With Wrike’s project closeout checklist template, you can:
- Launch your closeout process quickly with blueprints
- Categorize your project signoff process with folders and projects
- Set up custom fields and customizable workflows
- Increase stakeholder visibility with visual dashboards
Wrike’s project signoff template includes three primary components: a checklist, dashboard, and report.
Step 1:
Locate the checklist blueprint, which includes pre-labeled folders and tasks that detail the required action items along with a custom workflow. The blueprint is customizable to how your team works, too.
Step 2:
See the various phases of the project closure checklist and the items’ status in an organized Kanban-style dashboard.
Step 3:
Get a visual, high-level view by pulling a report and seeing the items of the closure checklist.
