Project Change Request Template

Document Guidelines

The Project Change Request summarizes the impact that a proposed change(s) would have on the
execution of a project and is a key document in the Project Change Control Procedure. This document is
used to communicate a significant change in project scope, deliverables, budget, schedule, and/or
resourcing, while also documenting the reasons that necessitated the change. This template outlines the
content and format of project change requests to be used for all information systems projects. The
Project Management Office is your resource for completing this document.

Specifically, a Project Change Request is required in the following circumstances:


 Additional funding of more than 10% of the approved project budget will be needed
 Additional time of greater than 10% of original end date will be required to complete the
project
 Additional project resources will be required that were not included in the Project Charter
 Changes in project scope and/or deliverables will be required to achieve the objectives of the
project
 Project sponsor determines that strategic visibility for a project change or other project
decisions is necessary

The change outlined in this document will be reviewed by either the CIO or the Information Systems
Steering Committee for approval. As a result, the completion of all sections of this document with
sufficient information is necessary to facilitate that decision.

Text in gray is instructions for completing the template and should be removed from the final version.
Sections in this document should not be removed or reordered.
