Produce Lessons Learned Report

The Lessons Learned Report is one of the final actions for the Project delivery. This is produced after a period in which the project has been in use. This allows time for the people who have accepted delivery of the project to see how it operates in practice. There are likely to be areas that worked better than planned and others that didn’t work as well as hoped.

 

When you produce the Lessons Learned report you should take into account these developments and then incorporate these with the lessons learned during the project into a cohesive report that gives clear recommendations based what you have learned. This document can then be circulated to partners and other parts of the Council so that the lessons can be shared. Bear in mind that your Lessons Log may have sensitive lessons that can’t be made public for various reasons, so make sure you are happy to share everything that forms part of the Lessons Learned Report.

 

This report is then presented to the final review, Review 5 – Review of Benefits where the Project Board can discuss how things turned out in relation to how they were planned and what can be done to improve future projects.
