Mario Moreira – March 2004
The activity of managing change is known as Change Management. Managing change is typically very challenging and may occur at many levels within a workplace. A key when implementing a change management process is truly understanding what should be managed and by whom. For the sake of argument, I will refer to the group that manages the change as the Change Control Board (CCB). However, there are other names used to represent this group (e.g., Configuration Control Board, Governance Board, etc.). It is important to understand that while I use the phrase “manage or control the change”, a CCB may not really control the change as much as acknowledge the change and apply impact analysis for the change
