What does “Change Control” mean to you? Is change in your organization ever “controlled?” This concept has always been a critical part of software development. Indeed, Change Control is actually written into the development plan! We should all embrace this practice of putting allowances for change right into the project plan, not just in the area of software development. No matter how thorough the business analysis job or how complete the project plan, there's always something that needs to be changed or added after the fact. There will be change.
