BIS 430: Project Management Scope Management Plan: If a change to Wedding Cake B

Question

BIS 430: Project Management

Scope Management Plan:

If a change to Wedding Cake Bakery scope is needed, the process for recommending and estimating changes to the scope of the project must be carried out. Any project team member or Sponsor can request changes to the project scope. All change requests must be submitted to the Project Director in the form of a project change request document. The Project Director will then review the suggested change to the scope of the project. The Project Director will then either reject the change request if it does not apply to the intent of the project, or convene a Change Control meeting between the project team and Sponsor to review the change request further and perform an impact assessment of the change. If the change request receives initial approval by the Project Director and Sponsor, the Project Director will then formally submit the change request to the Change Control Board. If the Change Control Board approves the scope change the Project Sponsor will then formally accept the change by signing the project change control document. Upon acceptance of the scope change by the Change Control Board and Project Sponsor the Project Director will update all project documents and communicate the scope change to all project team members’ stakeholders.
