What does configuration control refer to?

  1. A system to manage project finances

  2. A systematic procedure for change management

  3. A tool for software configuration

  4. A process for controlling team schedules

The correct answer is: A systematic procedure for change management

Configuration control refers to a systematic procedure for change management in a project. It involves identifying and documenting changes to project documents, deliverables, baselines, and other configuration items. By implementing configuration control, project teams can ensure that changes are evaluated, approved, and implemented in a controlled manner to maintain the integrity and consistency of project work products. Option A is incorrect because managing project finances falls under cost management, not configuration control. Option C is incorrect as software configuration refers specifically to managing the configuration of software products or systems. Option D is incorrect because controlling team schedules falls under schedule management, not configuration control.
