Close a project through one structured entry — results, spending against budget, lessons, and evidence links — filed for funders and your next design.
Quick answer
Use it to close a project in one structured pass: planned versus delivered, budget against actuals, lessons learned and evidence links — filed once, then reused for funder reporting and your next project's design.
Closure is the most skipped report and the most valuable one. This form makes the end-of-project report a single structured pass: what was planned versus delivered, budget against actuals, what the team learned, and links to evidence. Filed entries feed funder reporting and your next project's design in the same shape — no one rewriting a beautiful Word document into someone else's template at 11 pm.
