…recap::Definition ICC is the process necessary for
controlling factors that create changes to make sure those changes are beneficial, determining whether a change has occurred, and managing the approved changes, including when they occur.

…recap::CMMI – Configuration Management The purpose of Configuration
Management (CM) is to establish and maintain the integrity of work products using configuration identification, configuration control, configuration status accounting, and configuration audits.

…recap:: CCM Conclusions What are CCM objectives?
Managing change is more than just checking-in and checking-out files. It includes management of workspaces, parallel development, integration, and builds.
Which are the main topics for CCM?Coordinating the Activities and ArtifactsCoordinating Iterations and ReleasesCoordinating Changes to Software

…recap:: CCM Conclusions When CCM is established?
Often institutionalized or established early on in the project lifecycle
CRs, can be raised at any time during the course of the project
Who is responsible for CCM?Change Control Manager/Configuration
ManagerAnyone on the project staff should be able to
raise a Change Request 9

Why Project Closure?
Without a formal closure process, project teams can fail to recognize the end, and then the project can drag on—sometimes at great expense
Closure must be done both on project completion and cancelation
![Page 15: Project Closure May 6 th, 2014. 2 …recap::Integrated Change Control Part of the Project Integration Management Knowledge Area: Develop Project Charter,](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a88995/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

What does project closure?
Outcomes match the stated goals of the project (when completion is achieved)
Customers and stakeholders are happy with the results
Critical knowledge is captured The team feels a sense of completion Project resources are released for new
projects

One of the highest benefits from project closure is releasing the teamFormalPost mortem

The Project Closure Phase
The last phase of the Project Life Cycle Determined by the completion of all
Project Objectives and acceptance of the end product by the customer
The outputs from Project Closure Phase is input to execute the next projects with much more efficiency and control

PMBOK – Closing Process Group Includes the processes to
Formally terminate all activities of a project or project phase
Hand over the project to maintenance teams The project can be either completed or
canceled

Closing Process Group Contains two processes:
Project Closure: This is the process necessary to finalize all activities across all of the Process Groups to formally close the project or a project phase.
Contract Closure: This is the process necessary for completing and settling each contract, including the resolution of any open items, and closing each contract applicable to the project or a project phase.

35
Iteration Closure
Iteration is concluded by the iteration acceptance review, where the formal result of the iteration is agreed upon and recorded
This involves considering the results of the iteration and analyzing their impact on the project as a whole
35

Acting on Iteration assessment results Never confuse the map with the journey Adopt an attitude that continuous planning
is good Mature your process alongside your team Be prepared to cut your losses Be honest

Phase Assessment
Differences from iteration assessments:Judge the project, not a single iterationAlways decide whether to continue or cancel
the projectFocus on the delivered value rather than on
performanceAssess project against the business case

Project Assessments
Performed not only at project closure Cover for:
Handle exceptions raised by the iteration assessments
Phase assessments are too far apartProvide review points for the overall project
(might include non-software subprojects)
