What Is Construction Project Closeout?
From the beginning of a construction project to the construction project closeout, every document revision, addition, or edit needs to be clearly documented, recorded, and archived.
As the project comes to a completion the final “as-built” construction plans, along with any warranties and specification manuals, are some of the deliverables that must be summarized in a final construction project closeout report.
All applicable activities related to the project involving any and all construction phases, as well as the formal closure will be included in the project closeout report.
Construction Project Closeout Process & Agenda
The Agenda for a project closeout may include:
- Administrative Closure
- Contractual Closure
- Verification and Acceptance of Project Deliverables
- Post-Project Assessment
- Lessons Learned from the Project
- Post-Project Evaluation and Review
- Recognition and Celebration of Outstanding Work Accomplished
- Completion and Archiving of Project Final Records
- Transfer of Knowledge to Those Continuing or Maintaining Operations
Construction Project Closeout Documents
All of the steps mentioned above carry with them the obligation to provide complete and accurate records of all steps undertaken. On large projects with multiple contractors and working within governmental, environmental, or industry guidelines, the paperwork alone can quickly swamp even the most prepared and organized office.

- Concept Documents

- Warranty Documentation
