Why each option

Any change to an approved project baseline, such as the project schedule, must be formally initiated through a change request. This ensures controlled modification and stakeholder agreement.

AProject schedule

The project schedule will be updated *after* a formal change request has been approved, not as the first step.

BProject management plan

The project management plan might require updates due to a schedule change, but the change request precedes the plan modification.

CStatement of Work (SOW)

While a prolonged schedule could indirectly impact the Statement of Work (SOW), the direct mechanism for requesting a change to the project's timeline is a change request.

DChange request formCorrect

A change request form must be completed first to formally propose and document the modification to the project's approved schedule baseline, initiating the change control process.
