Slutklar/Slutklarskrivning

English translation: finally completed / final completion

Swedish to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Law: Contract(s) / Procurement/Contract Award
Swedish term or phrase: Slutklar/Slutklarskrivning
Slutklar = slutklarskrivning av beställt uppdrag

This is the definition given in Swedish - supposed completion of the work which includes handover of documentation, etc. Given as a sort of an opposition to driftsklar which is (ready for operation).
Help with a proper English term will be much appreciated.

English translation:finally completed / final completion
Explanation:
My guess is that, in this context, slutklarskrivning is based on the meaning of registering (skriva) something as finally (slut-) completed (klar). But, by extension, the word is here instead used to refer to the _action_ which finally completes so and so.

I am not entirely certain about this interpretation, so wait for other proposals if you can.

(In other contexts, "klarskriva" can mean "to write clearly".)
