Perform Change & Configuration Management Planning
• Change Management, is an important part of project
management.
• Changes must be vetted and managed to ensure that they are
within the project scope and are communicated to all
stakeholders.
• This activity involves the identification of project components
that are governed by the change control process, and the
documentation of change process.
• There are two primary concepts in change and configuration
management planning: Change control and configuration
management control.
• Although they both are concerned with ‘management of
change’, they are distinct activities and have different focuses.
• In short, change control focuses on project change, whereas
configuration management control focuses on product change.
