Assess the terms of agreement and the completion of all commitments.


Release the technical environment.
  
Identify and release technical environment elements, such as office space, computer installations, and related software.  Equipment or space needed for warranty support can be left in place after the project closes.


Obtain sponsor feedback.
  
Obtain information about the sponsor's areas of satisfaction and dissatisfaction, then document this information and use it as input to the lessons learned.
  

Assess the lessons learned.
  
Determine the key lessons learned on the project, document them, and suggest improvements for future projects in the project evaluation report. 
  

Close out the sponsor agreement.
  
Perform the administrative closure of the sponsor agreement.  This includes generating, gathering, and disseminating information to formalize project completion and closure.
  

Submit the intellectual capital.
  
Submit all intellectual capital generated on the project, including lessons learned, the WBS, project definition reports, and any other related documentation to the ICM AssetWeb.  Current and future projects will benefit from your experience.
