We have to collect and store information by its category; the key discussion areas for which we will capture the information are stated in the following sections:
Key challenges
Every project has some challenges. Documenting these challenges and the methods of their mitigation will be of great help in future. These challenges can be related to people, tool technology, skills, or processes.
What went well
When positive outcomes are captured and documented, they become guidelines for future projects.
What can be better
When we capture what can be better, it suggests how proactively we can use these lessons to overcome the challenges already faced—these will help in risk identification and mitigation. Some of them can even be chosen as the goals for future projects.
