The project manager has documented a change request from a key project stakeholder. Which of the following actions should the project manager take NEXT?

Discussing it in a status meeting without prior analysis is premature and does not follow a structured change management process.

While stakeholder input is valuable, asking for recommendations without first understanding the change's impact can lead to uninformed or biased suggestions.

The change request should be sent to the change control board after an impact analysis has been performed, so the board has the necessary information to make a decision.

Following the documentation of a change request, the project manager must perform an impact analysis to thoroughly assess how the proposed change would affect the project's baselines, including scope, schedule, budget, quality, and resources. This analysis provides the necessary information for informed decision-making by the change control board or relevant stakeholders.
