12 - PROJECT PROCUREMENT MANAGEMENT
12.1.3.5 Make-or-Buy decisions
A make-or-buy analysis results in a decision of whether particular work can best be accomplished by the
project team or needs to be purchased from outside sources. If the decision is to make the item, then the
procurement plan may define processes and agreements internal to the organization. A buy decision drives a
similar process of reaching agreement with a supplier for the product or services.
12.1.3.6 change requests
A decision that involves procuring goods, services, or resources typically requires a change request. Other
decisions during procurement planning can also create the need for additional change requests. Change requests
are processed for review and disposition through the Perform Integrated Change Control process (Section 4.5).
Changes to the project management plan, its subsidiary plans, and other components may result in change requests
that impact procurement actions. Change requests are processed for review and disposition through the Perform
Integrated Change Control process (Section 4.5).
12.1.3.7 Project documents updates
Project documents that may be updated include, but are not limited to:
• Requirements documentation,
• Requirements traceability matrix, and
• Risk register.
