Why each option
Once a change request receives approval from the Change Control Board, the next critical step is to update all relevant project plan components to reflect the newly authorized changes.
Documenting the change using forms typically occurs before or during the submission process to the Change Control Board, not after approval.
After a change request is approved, the project plan components-including scope, schedule, budget, and risk baselines-must be formally updated to incorporate the approved changes. This ensures that all project documentation and stakeholder expectations align with the new project direction and helps maintain project control.
A meeting with the project sponsor after approval is not the next immediate action, as their input or approval would have been considered during the CCB process.
Performing impact analysis is a crucial step that takes place before submitting the change request to the Change Control Board for their decision.
