At closeout of a fire-station renovation, the team turns over as-built drawings to facilities while reflecting that the cost baseline guided spending control during execution. How should those two artifacts be distinguished?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
As-builts are the keys you hand facilities at the end — they show what was actually built. The cost baseline was the spending fence while work was underway, not a gift at the ribbon cutting. Mixing those roles confuses control artifacts with closeout deliverables.
Full Explanation
Deliverable artifacts such as as-built drawings are typically transferred at close to support operations and maintenance. Control artifacts such as the cost baseline are used during planning and execution to measure and govern performance. Recognizing that distinction for a fire-station renovation prevents treating a handover package as if it had been the live cost control mechanism, or vice versa.
