The final phase of a EUPM² project is the Closing Phase. The purpose of this Phase is to capture lessons learned and recommendations, comply with the reporting requirements in the Grant Agreement, and proceed to the administrative closure of the project. The Closing Phase starts with the Project-End Review Meeting and ends with the Contracting Authority (CA) final approval, which marks the project’s administrative closure. During the Closing Phase, the project’s activities are completed, the project’s final state is documented, and the finished deliverables are officially transferred to the Project Target Group (PTG).
