Closeout Approval Workflow

The Closeout phase involves final budget reconciliation and returns any unspent funds to their original source. This process is overseen by the Budget Office.

All contracts should be fully paid and closed with all project vendors.

The assembly of closeout documents for operations and maintenance is now complete.

The CPD project manager will finalize the "as‐built" OPR and will include evidence of the space having been accepted for turnover by the user group and facilities operations and maintenance.
