Question
You are the project manager of the HJU project for your company. This project will last for 18 months and has a project budget of $567,000. Robert, one of your stakeholders, has introduced a scope change request that will likely have an impact on the project costs and schedule. Robert assures you that he will pay for the extra time and costs associated with the risk event. You tell Robert that the change request may affect more areas of the project than just time and cost and that you are worried about the additional risks the change request will bring. What project management component is responsible for evaluating a change request and its impact on all of the project management knowledge areas?

Explanation
Integrated Change Control is the process responsible for reviewing, approving, and managing all change requests while considering their impact across all project management knowledge areas - scope, schedule, cost, quality, resources, communications, risk, procurement, and stakeholders. It ensures changes are evaluated holistically, not in isolation. A project change control system (A) is the tool/procedure used within integrated change control, not the process itself. Risk analysis (C) is only one part of evaluating a change. Configuration management (D) tracks the characteristics of a product or system, not the cross-area impact of changes.
