Change Control

For any change requirements for product(s) and/or service(s), it is essential that these are controlled in order to evaluate timescales, resources and costs. SenServe Limited’s Project Management procedures will manage risk, manage quality, and control change on the project. Risk Management is the process of analysing where issues may arise and how the risk of this occurrence can be mitigated. Quality Management is the verification of the quality of work done on the project, either through testing or reviewing the work in a structured manner. The tester will typically be involved from the beginning of the project and will be responsible for setting up test procedures with the Project Manager. For smaller changes the same person may carry out implementation of all of the procedures detailed above.

Any changes requested by customer during the product(s) and/or service(s) delivery and/or implementation phase will be subject to the following process and will adhere to the initiation procedures and constraints:

  • Change Request document will be issued by the customer outlining the requirements.
  • An analysis exercise will be undertaken to establish the detail and impact of the change will have to the originally agreed SOW
  • Depending on the scope of change an updated or separate proposal will be provided to the customer outlining the change, cost and timescal
