In contract management, the final stage of a project is the close out, involving all the administrative, legal and financial processes needed to bring the contract to an end. These processes include ensuring that the contractor has fulfilled their obligations, that all financial liabilities have been resolved, that the performance of the contractor has been recorded, that any outstanding claims have been identified, and that the rights and obligations of the parties in respect of ongoing liabilities such as latent defects have been recorded and executed as per the terms of the contract.
