You’ll learn how to evaluate potential effects on scope, budget, schedule, and resources, and why both qualitative and quantitative analysis are important. We’ll cover how to identify the right decision makers and when to escalate requests to a Change Control Board (CCB).
The second half discusses how change boards function, including their composition, review criteria, and documentation requirements for approvals or rejections. Examples illustrate how thorough impact analysis supports informed decisions, minimizing disruption and ensuring stakeholder buy-in.
