Change Management Assessment: Blue Spider Project - PROJ6003 Analysis

This assignment presents a detailed change request for the Blue Spider Project, addressing critical issues in product design, communication, and resource management. The analysis highlights the need for changes in the initial product design to meet project constraints, improve communication with stakeholders (particularly Lord Industries), and optimize resource allocation to adhere to the project schedule. The change request outlines the impacts of these adjustments on the project's scope, grade, requirements, cost, schedule, and stakeholder management. It also includes a disposition section and references a project manager's book of forms for template sourcing. The assignment is part of a larger assessment, PROJ6003 Project Execution and Control, emphasizing change management principles and practices. The document aims to improve project outcomes through effective change control and management, ensuring alignment with project plans and baselines.

Detailed Description of Proposed Change
Changes related to product design, Proper communication within the project, and
Managing the resources of the project
Justification for Proposed Change
1. The product design that was done in the initial phase of the project to submit the proposal, was to be
changed as the product design was not satisfying the constraints of the project.
2. Change in communication was also needed in the project as Gary did not communicated properly with
Lord Industries. As per Lord Industries, there was no proper communication between the project team
members, the project manager and Lord Industries.
3. Change in resource management is another important aspect that Gary would have introduced in the
first meeting when they found out that they were lagging behind from the project schedule. The project
manager had the responsibility to check on the resources and change it as per the requirement.
