Points to consider:
- Were the project goals met?
- Were the project deliverables fully or partially accomplished? If partial, what are the reasons for this? Were there additional deliverables added?
- Did the project deliver a solution to the problems being addressed? Have the desired operational results been achieved?
- Were additional results achieved besides the original success criteria? Were there any unforeseen benefits delivered by this project?
- Does the Project Sponsor agree that this project can be closed at this time?

| Resource Area/Team | Original Estimate (days) | Actual (days) | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
Explanation for variance
For most projects the Project Brief should provide a reasonably accurate and detailed estimate of the staff and non staff costs for the project.
Project Management research suggests that the actual resources used should typically be within 20% of this figure. The Project Manager should identify any events which required resource or schedule changes for the project.
