Deliverable Lifecycle

You undertake a project to product a Final Product, Service or Result. Right? This is your deliverable. If you closely look at the PMBoK 5th edition processes, you will notice that during Execution, "Direct and Manage Project Work" Integration process provides the deliverable to "Control Quality" Monitoring and Controlling process. After the testing, if any defects are found, a Change Request is raised and routed via the "Perform Integrated Change Control" Integration process. If the Change Request is approved, it is routed to "Direct and Manage Project Work" Integration Process, for the team to implement the approved change to correct the deliverable.

Once the deliverable is successfully tested, "Control Quality" Monitoring and Controlling process turns this into Verified Deliverable and sends to "Validate Scope" another Monitoring and Controlling process. Again here, if any defects are found, they are routed via the "Perform Integrated Change Control" Integration process. And what happens afterwards, you already know, isn't it?

If the customer has given a formal signoff, the Accepted deliverable is passed on to the customer via the "Close Project or Phase" integration process.
