Reveal correct answer
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Thomas should review all project contracts to ensure they have been properly closed out and have met their terms. Closing all contracts must be completed before the project is officially closed, which can be coordinated with centralized contracting. However, Thomas may have to approve the invoices for payment as part of the organizational framework. Quality control happens before the customers see the result, so it is assumed that this task has been completed already. Given that all tasks have been closed out, there should not be a backlog. Predictive projects do not have a velocity.Discussion
