Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC) — Question 1350

Thomas is a key stakeholder in your project. Thomas has requested several changes to the project scope for the project you are managing.
Upon review of the proposed changes, you have discovered that these new requirements are laden with risks and you recommend to the change control board that the changes be excluded from the project scope. The change control board agrees with you. What component of the change control system communicates the approval or denial of a proposed change request?

Answer options

• A. Configuration management system
• B. Integrated change control
• C. Change log
• D. Scope change control system

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Integrated change control, as it is the process that manages changes to the project's scope, schedule, and costs, ensuring that all changes are documented and approved. The other options, while related to managing project changes, do not specifically communicate the approval or denial of change requests like the integrated change control process does.
