A project is nearing completion. Which of the following tasks is required to ensure continuity after the project closes?

Transitioning ownership to an operational team involves formally handing over the project's deliverables, documentation, and ongoing responsibilities to the group responsible for their maintenance and support post-project. This ensures the long-term sustainability and continued benefits of the project's output.

Extended support by project members is generally not a sustainable or desired outcome for project closure, as project teams are typically disbanded.

The operational team provides ongoing support and maintenance, but a warranty is typically provided by the vendor of a product or service, not directly by the operational team.

Periodic training of project team resources is relevant during the project life cycle for skill development, but not a task for ensuring continuity after project closure.
