^ [[7 Executing Phase]] # 7.6  Phase Gate- RfC (Ready for Closing) This is the third and final phase gate. A review and approval are recommended before the project can move to the next phase. The Project Manager (PM) **assesses whether all the goals of the Executing Phase have been achieved**, verifies that all planned **activities have been carried out**, that all requirements have been met, and that the **project’s outputs have been fully delivered**. The Project Manager (PM) is also responsible for **ensuring that the Project Owner (PO) accepts the deliverables** (at least provisionally), finalises the transition and makes the **outputs available to the end-users**. Once all the above conditions have been met, the Project Steering Committee (**PSC**) can **authorise** the Project Manager (**PM**) to move the project **to the Closing Phase**. PM2 provides a **template Phase Exit Review Checklist** for each phase that can be used by the Project Manager (PM) to guide the assessment, alongside a review of the phase’s specific goals. ___ Spanish Guide: [[7.6 Puerta de Fase - LpC (Listo para Cierre)]] <-- [[7.5 Distribución de Información]] --> [[8 Closing Phase]]
