What artifacts are created at each phase?

In the classic project lifecycle, specific artifacts are created at each phase, which document the work results and serve as the basis for the next phase:

• Initiation: business case, project charter, preliminary plan, stakeholder analysis.
• Planning: detailed project plan, schedule, budget, risk management plan, product requirements.
• Execution: work progress reports, product documentation, results of interim checks.
• Monitoring and Control: status reports, quality metrics, change management.
• Closure: final report, project documentation, product handover to the customer, lessons learned.

These artifacts help structure the process and ensure transparency for all participants.
