Change Management Procedure – Template 2
The objective of this document is to define the approach and overall framework for software developments and the way they are implemented within the Company’s information systems.
The result of software development activity is an application or application module referred subsequently as Product.
A Product can be developed starting from a set of business requirements:
a. as a change request for a new/modified functionality of an existing application.
b. as an emergency change request for a new/modified functionality of an existing application.
c. as a customization – based on an existing software package which is adapted to match the existing requirements and business model;
d. as a totally new application – when a customized solution does not cover specific business requirements, no alternative solution exists or from cost efficiency considerations;
According to applicability domains, Products can be used inside a department (for specific, particular use) or over more than one department.
