You are the project manager of the GYG Project. A new scope change is being considered for
your project. You are concerned, however, that the scope change may add costs, risks, and
adversely affect the project schedule. What project management process is responsible for
evaluating the full effect of a proposed scope change on your project?
A.
Scope change control
B.
Schedule change control
C.
Integrated change control
D.
Change Control Board approval process
Explanation:
The integrated change control process reviews proposed changes and determines what effect the
change will have on the entire project. This includes scope, time, cost, quality, human resources,
communication, risk, and procurement. Integrated change control is a way to manage the changes
incurred during a project. It is a method that manages reviewing the suggestions for changes and
utilizing the tools and techniques to evaluate whether the change should be approved or rejected.
Integrated change control is a primary component of the project’s change control system that
examines the affect of a proposed change on the entire project.
Answer option A is incorrect. Scope change control focuses only on the effect of the change on
the project scope.
Answer option B is incorrect. Schedule change control focuses only on the effect of the change on
the schedule.
Answer option D is incorrect. The Change Control Board is a committee of key stakeholders,usually management, the project manager, and the project customer, to evaluate proposed
changes. This board, however, is not a project process.
