Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: Conduct knowledge transfer sessions with the operations team to ensure they understand the product and can support it effectively

Explanation

During project closure and transition, knowledge transfer is essential to ensure the receiving team can successfully operate and support the deliverable. Conducting training and knowledge transfer sessions addresses the readiness concern while facilitating a proper transition.

**Why not B:** Escalating to senior management to request a different team is premature and unnecessary. The operations team has requested documentation and is engaged in the transition. The appropriate first step is to help them build readiness through knowledge transfer, not to bypass them.

**Why not C:** Extending the project timeline indefinitely is not a practical or appropriate response. Project closure should be completed within a reasonable timeframe. Knowledge transfer sessions can be conducted to prepare the operations team without keeping the project open indefinitely.

**Why not D:** Handing over documentation immediately without ensuring the receiving team can use it effectively would result in a poor transition. If the operations team is unprepared, simply providing documents will not address their readiness concerns. Knowledge transfer must accompany documentation.
