4.4.1.4 Validated changes
Described in Section 8.3.3.2. Approved changes that result from the Perform Integrated Change Control process
require validation to ensure that the change was appropriately implemented. A validated change provides the
necessary data to confirm that the change was appropriately executed.
4.4.1.5 Work Performance Information
Work performance information is the performance data collected from various controlling processes, analyzed
in context, and integrated based on relationships across areas. Thus work performance data has been transformed
into work performance information. Data in itself cannot be used in the decision-making process as it has only
out-of-context meaning. Work performance information, however, is correlated and contextualized, and provides a
sound foundation for project decisions.
Work performance information is circulated through communication processes. Examples of performance
information are status of deliverables, implementation status for change requests, and forecasted estimates to
complete.
4.4.1.6 Enterprise Environmental Factors
Described in Section 2.1.5. The enterprise environmental factors that can influence the Monitor and Control
Project Work process include, but are not limited to:
• Governmental or industry standards (e.g., regulatory agency regulations, codes of conduct, product
standards, quality standards, and workmanship standards),
• Organization work authorization systems,
• Stakeholder risk tolerances, and
• Project management information system (e.g., an automated tool suite, such as a scheduling software
tool, a configuration management system, an information collection and distribution system, or web
interfaces to other online automated systems).
