must be clear in order to make any type of approval decisions. Many organizations have change
control boards (CCBs) which review proposed changes and either approve or deny them. This is
an effective way to provide oversight and ensure adequate feedback and review of the change is
obtained. This section should also identify who has approval authority for changes to the
project, who submits the changes, how they are tracked and monitored.
For complex or large projects the Change Management Plan may be included as an appendix to
the Project Management Plan or as a separate, stand-alone document. We have a detailed
Change Management Plan template available on our website.
The following steps comprise TSI’s organization change control process for all projects and will
be utilized on the SmartVoice project:
Step #1: Identify the need for a change (Any Stakeholder)
Requestor will submit a completed TSI change request form to the project manager
Step #2: Log change in the change request register (Project Manager)
The project manager will maintain a log of all change requests for the duration of the
project
Step #3: Conduct an evaluation of the change (Project Manager, Project Team, Requestor)
The project manager will conduct an evaluation of the impact of the change to cost, risk,
schedule, and scope
Step #4: Submit change request to Change Control Board (CCB) (Project Manager)
The project manager will submit the change request and analysis to the CCB for review
Step #5: Change Control Board decision (CCB)
The CCB will discuss the proposed change and decide whether or not it will be approved
based on all submitted information
Step #6: Implement change (Project Manager)
If a change is approved by the CCB, the project manager will update and re-baseline
project documentation as necessary as well as ensure any changes are communicated to
the team and stakeholders
Any team member or stakeholder may submit a change request for the SmartVoice Project. The
SmartVoice Project Sponsor will chair the CCB and any changes to project scope, cost, or
schedule must meet his approval. All change requests will be logged in the change control
register by the Project Manager and tracked through to completion whether approved or not.

requirements for the project and how information will be distributed to ensure project success.

management problems can be avoided. In this section you should provide an overview of your
communications management approach. Generally, the Communications Management Plan
