ITPEC IP October 2020 — Question 54 of 100

The project manager should assess the requested function's effects on cost, schedule, scope, resources, risks, and quality, then follow the formal change-management procedure. The authorized decision body can approve, reject, or defer the request using that impact analysis.

Answer (c)

Why not others:
- accepting immediately bypasses evaluation and authorization

- elapsed time alone is not a valid reason to reject every change

- scope changes can affect schedule, cost, quality, and risk, so the baseline must not be updated before approval

Key rule: Analyze first, authorize through change control, then update affected baselines and plans.
