Introductiontop

A Project will always have commercial and "political" features. The key ones will be what the Project is to achieve commercially: for the End User or the Customer, and for your organisation. The criteria for success will be defined in the Project's Business Case, in the Proposal, and particularly in the Contract with the Customer (or the agreement with the End User).

Ensuring that these criteria are met is a key responsibility of the Project Manager. He/she will need to be fully aware of the criteria, and will be expected to provide clear and accurate commercial feedback, ensure that the work is done properly, and that the necessary formal steps (e.g. Acceptance) are taken, to confirm and record that the Contract has been fulfilled. This Sub-process covers planning for this, taking the actions needed to achieve it, and keeping proper records (in the Project Control Folders) to show it has been done.
