What are considered inputs to the Assess Requirements Changes task?

The inputs to the Assess Requirements Changes task primarily include requirements because they serve as the foundational information that needs to be evaluated when contemplating any changes. This task involves analyzing proposed changes to ensure they align with the current requirements framework and do not adversely affect the overall objectives of the project.

Requirements provide the baseline for understanding what is currently needed or desired in the business context. When assessing changes, it is essential to have clarity on existing requirements to evaluate the impact, necessity, and relevance of the proposed alterations. This understanding helps in making informed decisions about whether to accept, modify, or reject the suggested changes.

While other options like External Regulations, Implementation Plan, and Market Analysis may inform the broader context in which changes are considered, they do not directly serve as inputs to the task of assessing requirement changes in the same straightforward manner that existing requirements do. These other factors may influence the overall strategic landscape and decision-making but do not replace the need for a thorough understanding of the initial requirements.
