This week, you are planning for project closure. This may be just as important as project initiation. You will also provide detail and a status update for the activities that you have performed to date on your network integration project. As part of the status and requirements update, you will produce a final network infrastructure diagram that represents the requirements and new network configuration or topology for the capstone project. You are tasked with creating a final presentation to communicate to your constituents on what the project is and summarize all of the major areas already captured in your Word document. The deliverables for Week 5 are as follows: Project Closure Plan List at least 5 major closeout categories. Identify the activities that are needed to complete each of these closeout categories in a plan format. Describe how each activity will assist in closing out the project. Include an analysis of whether the project was successful or not. Provide a list of lessons learned and what can be done differently in a future, similar project. Project Status and Requirements Updates Include a final status update of your actual project status. Update any final challenges, risks, and change requests. Describe how they have been handled. Draw a network infrastructure diagram to represent the network integration project requirements, and describe each major component in the diagram. (Visio is a good choice for creating this diagram.)

A final, yet extremely important, activity is planning for closure of the project. Research major closure activities, and post your opinion on ONE of the following questions: What are 5 major closure activity categories and related tasks that should occur to effectively close out this project? What are the tasks that would be associated with final reviews and approvals, lessons learned, training, ongoing operational support, and procurement and contractual closeout? due Wednesday deliverable length 1-2 paragraphs
