This checklist is designed to enhance existing project port-mortem procedures. It emphasizes interactions between process suppliers and customers, interference from competing or parallel initiatives, effectiveness of activities in phases and Interdependencies on other organizational systems.

Incorporate the questions on this checklist into any existing formal internal procedure and form for capturing lessons learned.

Categories of lesson criteria include:

- Project Planning
- Project Execution and Delivery
- Human Factors
- Overall Project Management

Once the template is finalized, details will be added for each project and the impact of each measure will be rated for that project.  In the end, you will have a wealth of information about how your PM efforts could be improved.
