Q This week, we have focused in on the execution and monitoring processes. In particular, we have focused on earned value management as a tool for evaluating performance. But after we evaluate performance, we often need to alter the project in some fashion. This may require us to change the project plan in terms of scope, schedule, or costs. As project managers, we need to work with our project sponsor to determine the best course of action once the impact of the change is known. Both in the Gray& Larson text and in the PMBOK Guide, we read about integrated change control. For this discussion question, provide an overview of the importance of integrated change control (ICC), what the process is, and what you have seen in your professional experience either work well or not so well as it relates to ICC.
