Guidelines for Controlling Change

  1. Changes can be requested by anyone associated with the project, but submitting the Project Change Request Form to the project manager and the project change committee will start the change process.

  2. Project change requests must be evaluated to determine the effect of a request.

  3. The project manager and the team must estimate the effort, dependencies, and resources required to institute the project change.

  4. The project manager must communicate the impact of proposed changes in terms of cost, scheduling, and performance to the customer.
