  • There are many factors that must be considered when evaluating a project change request. One such factor would be if the change would alter the business requirements. In other words, does the project try to produce results that the business or company requires? In addition, if the project change would require additional funding that cannot be satisfied, then this would be a determining factor as to whether the project change can be approved or not because if sufficient funds cannot be allocated, then the change is simply not feasible. Does the change the postpone the project end date? Have all of the stakeholders in this project been notified of this and have they been considered? Are they willing to approve the change request? These are additional questions that must be taken into account because it’s important to know who will be impacted and how. How much money will each person lose? One more important factor is if this change request is the only solution to solve the problem at hand. Are you sure that there isn’t a work-around for the project that could’ve solved the issue? In order to ensure that you make the right decision, these are some of the questions that one must ask while evaluating the request.
