The change control manager role oversees
the change control process. This role is usually played by
a Configuration (or Change) Control Board (CCB) and consists of representatives
from all interested parties, including customers, developers, and users.
In a small project, a single team member, such as the project manager or
software architect, may play this role.
The change control manager is also responsible for defining
the Change Request Management
Process, which is documented in the CM
Plan.
Staffing
The change control manager should understand configuration management principles.
He should be skilled in estimating cost and schedule impacts of change
requests. He/she should be able to communicate effectively in order to
negotiate scope changes and in order to determine how each change request
should be handled and by whom.
