Explanation
Integrated Change Control is the process responsible for reviewing all change requests and formally communicating the approval or denial decision to stakeholders. It serves as the central mechanism for managing changes across all knowledge areas. The configuration management system (A) manages the technical specifications of deliverables. The scope change control system (B) specifically handles scope changes but reports through integrated change control. The change log (D) is a document that records change requests and their status, but it is an output-not the process that communicates decisions. Integrated change control is the authoritative process for change decisions.
