Compile information for final report and final accounts.
The method will be primarily related to PRINCE 2 principles. The sub-tasks involved in this procedure are:
Project Assurance, Project Support and Controlling Change.
Project Assurance provides three views of assurance, business, user and specialist. Each view reflects the interests of three Project Board members. Assurance is about checking that the project remains viable in terms of costs and benefits (business assurance), checking that the users' requirements are being met (user assurance), and that the project is delivering a suitable technical solution (specialist assurance).
Project Support includes administrative work, ensuring the technical infrastructure is reliable, keeping everyone informed, arranging meetings, keeping plans up-to-date, chasing things up, keeping files, acting on identified risks and issues. The Project Support Office overseen by the Project Board will help WP Managers with this work
