Who can also agree on the project being completed?

• A. Customer
• B. Project Manager
• C. Project Sponsor
• D. Managers

Answer: (C)

Formal completion of a project is approved by the person who holds the authority to close the project and accept the final deliverables—the project sponsor. The sponsor oversees the business case, funding, and benefits realization, so their sign-off confirms that objectives are met and the project can close, resources can be released, and the intended benefits can proceed. The customer may also accept the deliverables, but the sponsor is the one with the formal authority to declare completion in governance terms. The project manager runs the work and orchestrates closeout, but cannot unilaterally finalize the project’s status. General managers don’t automatically have that project-specific sign-off authority.
