Depending on nature and impact of changes proposed; approval of changes, communication to stake holders, updating relevant project documents and plans and its implementation will differ to cater to nature of each change request. The changes can be broadly categorized as:
• Scope changes: inevitable changes to scope required due to unforeseen requirements that were not in baseline. This will impact other project constraints: cost, time and quality. Project team must ensure to avoid bad changes to scope such as gold plating and scope creep.
• Changes to Schedule: change request having impact on project schedule. These may comprise employment of schedule compression such as crashing, fast tracking or rebase lining the project schedule depending on significance for

All projects must come to an end and that is the time when it is handed off to the client for their responsibility. For this project there was some road blocks encountered when I was getting to the final stages of the project. I can see how scope creep can extend the timeframe of a project or even derail it completely. This report will describe the timing and extra procedures it took to finalize my project and complete it on time. I planned to have the exit meeting on Monday the nineteenth of October but received no response from the client.

Cisco Systems Inc., Implementing ERP Cisco, incorporated in 1984 by 2 Stanford scientists, was fast growing technology company in the nineties; but its internal IT could not adapt very well to its rapid growth. The UNIX based software system that supported its various functions was more suited for a smaller company. This and other events made the adoption of ERP inevitable for Cisco. What factors had made the difference between success and failure of Cisco ERP project?
Project Concept and Strategy a. Was the Woody 2000 project well-conceived? Give reasons for your opinion. Ans. When a project is to be conceived, it broadly needs its planners to: - Lay down the objectives of the objectives of the project - Lay down the strategies, to achieve the objectives - Communicate these objectives to the staff - Break down the strategies into work activities - Assign members who would work on each of the activities - Decide the activities that will need outsourcing, and account for them - Assign timelines to each of the activities - Assign performance indicators/measurables to each of the activities - Estimate the cost of each activity, and thus the cost of the total project - Take into account the contingencies - Lastly,
There is no best way or one strategy to manage and handle the changes. The fusion of the various approaches can be used in more for various situations, that is why it is the role of leader to find the proper approaches that be singled out into a business strategy. Producing an innovative and modern system through rapid changes can be an appropriate system in the future. Organizations must try to weigh out the level of the changes and stability to gain a greater competitive advantage. Or, it will lead then to change failure,
Clients often need to be made to realize that if a project is to be completed at a certain level of quality, then a certain amount of time and money need also to be invested in the project. Projects that have time restrictions will need to increase the resources assigned to it or have the quality or scope reduced. The well known triple constraint formula is Cost * Schedule= Quality.

Unexpected impact Follow-up sometimes reveals unexpected impacts related to a project. Unexpected impacts are ones which were not anticipated or dealt with in the EIR. They may be positive or negative; but because they are unexpected there are unlikely to be mitigation measures in place to deal with them (Lawrence, 2003). The follow-up process therefore needs to be adaptive enough to cope with this The purpose of an EIA is to present information, so that it can inform the decision-making process (Canter, 1996).
