Why each option
A post-project benefits review evaluates how the project's products have performed in live operational use and whether the expected benefits have been realized.
Assessing whether the project fulfilled its original objectives is a project closure activity captured in the End Project Report, not the focus of a post-project benefits review which examines operational outcomes.
The post-project benefits review is conducted after project closure once products are in operational use, making the assessment of real-world product performance and benefits realization its primary purpose. It identifies which benefits have been achieved, which are still outstanding, and what actions may be needed to capture remaining value - all of which depend on operational evidence that only exists after deployment.
Reviewing the project's risk management procedures is part of lessons learned documented at project closure, not a post-project benefits review which centers on delivered value in operation.
Evaluating the performance of the project management method is a lessons-learned activity completed during project closure, whereas the post-project benefits review focuses on operational product and benefit performance.
