Overview Purpose To be a repository of any lessons learned during the project that can be

usefully applied to this or other projects. At the close of the project it is written up formally in the Lessons Learned Report. Minimally it should be updated at the end of a stage, but sensibly a note should be made in it of any good or bad point that arises in the use of the management and specialist products and tools at the time of the experience.

Contents Page 3 contains the Lessons Learned Log Advice
