Change control case
On your project you want to avoid bureaucracy, so you adopt an informal approach to change control. The main problem with this approach is—
a. There is no “paper trail” of change activity
b. Regular disagreements between the project manager and the functional manager will occur
c. There are misunderstandings regarding what was agreed upon by stakeholders
d. There is a lack of sound cost estimating to assess the change’s impact
Answer: c. There are misunderstandings regarding what was agreed upon by stakeholders
Using a formal, documented approach to change management reduces the level of misunderstanding or uncertainty regarding the nature of the change and its impact on cost and schedule. For large projects, change control boards are recommended. [Monitoring and Controlling]
