During which phase does the operation end?

• A. Planning Phase
• B. Evaluation Phase
• C. Initiation Phase
• D. Termination Phase

Answer: (D)

Ending an operation happens in the termination phase. This is the closing stage of the project lifecycle, where you formally finish all work, obtain final acceptance of deliverables, close out contracts, release resources, and document lessons learned. It marks the official end of the operation with a completed and closed project file. The other phases are about starting things up, planning how to achieve the goals, and assessing progress or outcomes during and after implementation, but they don’t signify the formal end of the operation.
