Project Closure

Mom was leaving to pick up Nathan from baseball practice, but Abby wanted to make sure the project sponsors were happy with everything and ready for the party to start. So, Abby took her dad around to show him the food spread and decorations, taking pictures of these things with her tablet so that her mom could review the pictures while she waited for Nathan in the car. There were certain things Mom really cared about, like having the food on ice and a meat thermometer to ensure the food was fully cooked, so Abby made sure to send pictures that showed these things. Dad followed Abby as she showed him everything, but he also kept an eye out to make sure everyone was having fun as more and more relatives showed up. Abby’s parents looking over all of these things to ensure they were going well (more inspection) is called scope validation, and their approval of the work done and everything set up at the party resulted in what are called the accepted deliverables.
