12 - PROJECT PROCUREMENT MANAGEMENT
12.3.3.2 change requests
Change requests to the project management plan, its subsidiary plans, and other components, such as the
cost baseline, schedule baseline, and procurement management plan, may result from the Control Procurements
process. Change requests are processed for review and approval through the Perform Integrated Change Control
process.
Requested but unresolved changes can include direction provided by the buyer or actions taken by the seller,
which the other party considers a constructive change to the contract. Since any of these constructive changes may
be disputed by one party and can lead to a claim against the other party, such changes are uniquely identified and
documented by project correspondence.
12.3.3.3 Project Management Plan updates
Elements of the project management plan that may be updated include, but are not limited to:
• Procurement management plan. The procurement management plan is updated to reflect any approved
change requests that affect procurement management, including impacts to costs or schedules.
• Schedule baseline. If there are slippages that impact overall project performance, the schedule baseline 12
may need to be updated to reflect the current expectations.
• cost baseline. If there are changes that impact overall project costs, the cost baseline may need to be
updated to reflect the current expectations.
12.3.3.4 Project documents updates
Project documents that may be updated include, but are not limited to, procurement documentation.
Procurement documentation may include the procurement contract with all supporting schedules, requested
unapproved contract changes, and approved change requests. Procurement documentation also includes any

performance reports and warranties, financial documents including invoices and payment records, and the
results of contract-related inspections.
