Explanation

In PMI's framework, Close Project (an Integration Management process) is performed before Contract Closure (a Procurement Management process). Close Project covers administrative closure - obtaining formal acceptance, archiving records, and releasing resources - while Contract Closure finalizes and settles each individual contract. Since contracts are a subset of the overall project, the project's administrative closure is initiated first, and then individual contracts are formally closed out. Option A reverses the order. Option B is wrong because Close Project must still be performed even if the project ends early (due to cancellation, etc.). Option C is wrong because they are distinct sequential processes, not simultaneous.
