Requirements may change throughout the course of a project. Changes need to be controlled, ensuring all of their impacts upon the project are managed effectively and are incorporated into existing management plans and project baselines. The process of directing and managing project work requires project managers to take on numerous responsibilities and to exhibit characteristics such as attention to detail, constant communication and effective leadership. Instructions: For this Assessment refer to the assessment case study found in Key Learning Resources. PROJ6003_Assessment 1 Brief_July 2019.Docx Page 2 of 9 There are two parts for this assessment: 1 Discussion Forum (Part A) that prepares students to write a Change Management Plan (Part B). Each student will construct an initial response in approximately 500 words to the following questions and post on the Module discussion forums. Students will be graded individually on how students demonstrate/share project change management theories and contribute to the general discussion of the topic over weeks 2, 3 & 4 as well as their 250-words written response. The initial and responding posts must be submitted by the end of Module 2 (Total 750 words). Part A: Module 1-2 Discussion Forums Managing Project Changes Why is change management a necessary component of project management?

Part B: Change Control Based upon the given case study, in groups or as an individual, develop a report on change control. In the report: 1. Identify changes required for the case study. Critically analyse their impact on scope, time, cost, quality of the project and the techniques used to manage them. 2. Explain what processes are involved in submitting a request to deal with the changes necessary from your analysis of the case study. 3. Identify and discuss options to satisfy each change request and any risks associated to the options. 4. Complete the change request/control form provided or one that is used from a workplace. The written part of your change control report should consist of 1500 words/student.

Introduction
In an era of rapidly changing a business environment, organizations need to expand several change management strategies, which help guide management to respond to changes or get the organization out of trouble. It’s significant to note that a change management strategy is not helpful to the organization always, because of the risks and threats associated with it. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that such strategies be properly analyzed. In this report, the changes needed in the "Blue Spider" case study are discussed as well as their impact on price, scope, time, quality and technology is analyzed. Additionally, the procedure of submitting changes requests was also studied. The report also analyzes the risks associated with the proposed changes.
Based upon the given case study, in groups or as an individual, develop a report on change control. In the report:
Identify changes required for the case study. Critically analyse their impact on scope, time, cost, quality of the project and the techniques used to manage them.
Even though the Parks Corporation team tried to develop the scope of project before starting the project development, the scope would be more enlightening if more information was included. The only information provided about the scope of project is that Blue Spider project is a test aimed at improving the structural abilities of Spartan missile. It will manufacture short-range missiles for use by Army (Dr. K.Madhava Rao, 2020). This range shows that Spartan missile showed fatigue after six years of field competition, which is three years shorter than expected specifications. The scope further stipulates that the new materials the Army needs may last longer for the Spartan missile. However, if the team reveals clear goals that are specific, measurable, reasonable, and measurable in order to provide guidance to all those involved in the plan, the scope will be considered clear and detailed. In addition, if the team has a clear budget that shows everything the developer needs from start to finish, the scope will be clearer. In fact, the lack of clarity on currency issues from the beginning led to major financial obstacles to funding the project (Katavić, 2013). Changing the scope of the project has a major impact on project performance and stakeholders. When the team responsible for monitoring practice chooses to change the plan through materials without informing others of the plan’s interest, the ambiguity surrounding the choice of scope becomes apparent. Unfortunately, changing the scope of the project will adversely affect the performance of the project, resulting in delays (Kuzhda, 2016). On the other hand, stakeholders gained the feeling by changing that the people involved in the project behaved inconsistently, and also worried that this approach might not achieve the desired goals.
