finalising
Putting finishing touches
Finalising is the British spelling of finalizing—completing the last details of something or bringing it to its finished form.
You finalise arrangements, agreements, or plans when you settle the remaining points: We're finalising the contract this week.
The word implies that most work is done and only closing steps remain.
