Explanation

The Change Control Board (CCB) is the governing body with the authority to review, approve, reject, or defer changes to a project - regardless of who requests the change, including senior leadership. The CCB evaluates the impact of the change on scope, schedule, cost, and risk before approving. The Project Management Office (A) provides governance and standards but does not approve individual project changes. The project manager (C) may initiate or implement change requests but typically lacks unilateral approval authority. The functional manager (D) manages resources, not project change approval.
