if the feature aligns with the project’s objectives and if it is feasible within the current
constraints.

control process to document the request, assess impacts, and get approval from key
stakeholders.
4. Communicate and Adjust: Communicate the changes to the development team and
adjust the project plan, timelines, and resources as necessary.
5. Monitor and Review: Continuously monitor the project to ensure that any additional
changes are managed properly and that the project remains on track.
