The first thing that should be done when looking at change requests is the reason behind them. We receive a lot of change requests on projects we work on. Some of these requests are unnecessary because one parameter was overlooked somewhere. It is critical to evaluate these change requests and make sure that they are actually needed. To do so, you have to have an overall idea of the project. Another necessary component of processing change requests is to think of alternative ways to go about solving them. Because sometimes the requests might propose an impractical or inefficient way of solving the problem. It is important to look back at them and make sure that there isn’t any other more efficient way of doing things. Lastly, change requests should be looked at by multiple people to get different perspectives. This will help in the correct evaluation of the request.
