About this project change request template

This Project Change Request template provides a structured change control document for assessing proposed changes against an approved project baseline. It guides you through the full workflow — request, impact assessment, decision, and implementation — with dedicated sections for rationale, integrated impact analysis across scope, cost, schedule, quality, and risk, and a formal decision record with accountable owners.

The template includes illustrative sample content showing the expected level of evidence for a realistic change scenario. Every field, table, and placeholder is fully editable in WPS Office, Microsoft Word, or Google Docs, so you can replace the examples with your own project-specific information while preserving the decision trail and approval records.

Designed for project managers, change control boards, and delivery leads, this template helps you document change requests consistently, assess cross-workstream impacts, and record dated, accountable decisions that keep your project governance traceable and audit-ready.
