01
Front

What is a change request?

Back

A documented proposal to alter an approved project requirement, deliverable, design, process, schedule, budget, or other controlled item.

02
Front

Why record a request promptly, even if it is incomplete?

Back

Assign a unique ID and record it promptly, even if incomplete, so the request remains visible and traceable.

03
Front

What is screening for a change request?

Back

Screening is a preliminary check of clarity, scope, duplication, information sufficiency, and routing—not a decision about whether the change is worthwhile.

04
Front

What is the approved baseline?

Back

The approved baseline is the controlled version of the relevant plans, requirements, or products used for comparison.

05
Front

What makes an evaluation record decision-ready?

Back

Summarize the request, screening outcome, affected baseline items, impact findings, alternatives, assumptions, unresolved questions, and a recommended disposition.

06
Front

Who disposes of a change request?

Back

The authorized decision-maker disposes of the request under the project’s defined authority; the requester or analyst does not decide alone.

07
Front

What information should a change log link to each request ID?

Back

Link each request ID to its requester, submission date, description, affected items, analysis owner, status, decision and rationale, and key dates.

08
Front

How should intake treat a requester’s stated urgency and priority?

Back

Treat the requester’s desired timing, urgency, priority, and expected benefit as input, not as the project’s final assessment.

09
Front

What should happen when a request lacks necessary information?

Back

Return it for clarification or mark it pending information so missing details can be resolved.

10
Front

Does a requester's urgency label permit skipping required review?

Back

A requester’s urgency label does not authorize bypassing required review.

11
Front

Which two outcomes should impact analysis compare?

Back

Assess the consequences of both making and not making the change.

12
Front

What determines the depth of change impact analysis?

Back

Match analysis depth to the change’s scale, uncertainty, and risk; a minor wording correction needs less study than a safety-critical interface change.
