Explanation

Whenever a change is needed - whether it stems from a defect, scope addition, or technical modification - the project manager must route it through the Perform Integrated Change Control process. This process reviews all change requests, evaluates their impact across knowledge areas, and obtains formal approval from the Change Control Board (CCB) and relevant stakeholders. It ensures that changes are coordinated and that stakeholders formally buy in before implementation. Control Scope handles scope boundaries, Control Schedule handles timeline variances, and Risk Analysis assesses uncertainty - none of these are the right vehicle for obtaining stakeholder approval on a tool change.
