Managing design changes

Once the design or development of products or services has begun, and the first output elements have been shared, the team concerned may be confronted with requests or needs for modifications. These may come from customers (evolution or modification of requirements...), from the company's production or supply teams (supply difficulties, design error, realization difficulty...) or from the design team itself (improvement, evolution, correction...).

Whatever the source, this sheet will help you through the steps involved in managing change requests:

• How do you collect requests to modify a product, service or project?

• How do you decide on requests to modify a product, service or project?

• How to implement modification requests for a product, service or project?
