The change control procedure in the Configuration Management Strategy and any provisions for changes in the contract must be aligned.
If a change budget is used, it will need to be aligned to the customer’s purchasing procedures and the supplier’s business approval procedures.
(For example, will the customer authorize the change by raising new purchase orders, or variation orders against the original purchase order, or would the original purchase order cover both the project budget and the change budget? Would the supplier’s business approval procedure require separate management approval for each request for change, or is it covered by the management approval for the project?)
