The purpose of project change management is to change the status quo in a way that has minimal impact on the project. It includes the following main contents:

(1) Understand the changes. During the project implementation process, the project organization should always pay attention to the subjective and objective factors related to the project, timely discover and grasp the changes, carefully analyze the nature of the changes, determine the impact of the changes, and describe the changes in a timely manner.

(2) Change processing. When the changed factors affect the smooth implementation of the project, the project organization must make timely plan changes to ensure that the project goals are achieved. Changes to the project plan shall be subject to the consent of the project entity, and the project organization shall also promptly report back to them the changes and their implementation.
(3) Monitor the rationality of changes. Change processing is always carried out according to the objective needs of project implementation, but not every change is reasonable.

Project changes exist due to various changes and their forms are various, but the main ones are as follows:
(1) Project scope changes. Various factors, including political, legal, and technical factors, will affect the scope of the project, and this impact is irresistible under certain conditions.
(2) Project progress changes.
(3) Expense budget changes.
(4) Project contract changes. Project contract changes usually refer to legal actions that change the content of the contract and the subject matter due to certain legal facts. When the project contract is changed, the parties must reach an agreement, which will make the content of the contract and the subject matter even if the project changes. The legal consequences of contract changes will create new rights and obligations.
(5) Changes in project human resources.

Every organization should have a formal project change control process or control process. When applying for a change, the following points should be considered:
(1) Will the change affect the scope of work, cost, quality of work, and schedule?
(2) Will it affect the work equipment and tools?
(3) What impact will it have on parts and finished product inventory?
(4) In the product development project, will the change affect the form, generality and function of the developed product?
(5) Will the change make the product more popular or resisted in the market?
(6) Will the change affect the return on investment and net present value? If the answer is yes, is the project feasible at this level of return on investment and net present value?
(7) How can the change be justified? Is it required for competitive advantage? Is it required by certain regulations? What is its commercial necessity?
(8) Is the change necessary to get the project back on track? Or is the project too far away from the original goal? This change is only used to record our current position and is also used as a benchmark to track future progress line.

Any successful project change management includes two documents: a project change request and a project impact statement.
1. Project change application

For project requirements management, project management tools can automatically detect changes in requirements and associate demand changes with various stages of the project to alert users and allow users to better understand the impact of requirements changes. The system can also automatically track demand dependencies and indirect changes, allowing users to understand their potential impact as early as possible.
