Controlling the project scope ensures all requested changes and recommended

corrective or preventive actions are processed

through the Perform Integrated Change Control process.

Control Scope is also used to manage the actual changes when they occur and is

integrated with the other control processes.

The uncontrolled expansion to product or project scope without adjustments to time

, cost, and resources is referred to as scope creep.

Change is inevitable; therefore, some type of change control process is mandatory for every project.
