Answer: B

Explanation:

A project closure meeting is a formal gathering held at the end of a project timeline. Its chief purpose is to evaluate the project’s performance, identify and discuss the achieved outcomes, successes, and challenges, and confirm that all predefined tasks and objectives have been completed successfully1.

The project closure meeting also involves obtaining project sign-off from all necessary parties, such as the project sponsor, the client, the stakeholders, and the team members. Project sign-off is the

official approval that the project has met the agreed-upon criteria and quality standards, and that the project is formally closed2.
