Change Evaluation Report
- Certain types of major Changes, like the introduction of a new service or a substantial change to an existing service, require formal Change evaluations before being authorized.
- The results of a formal Change evaluation are documented in a Change Evaluation Report.
- Change evaluations may be used at different points in a Change’s lifecycle, for example before authorizing the Change/ Release build or during the Post Implementation Review.
- → ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > ITIL Change Evaluation
Change Management
- → ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Change Management
Change Management Policy
- The decision to authorize or reject a proposed Change is based on the completed Change Assessment.
- In particular, the assessment is about properly understanding the risks associated with the implementation of a Change.
- In this context, the Change Management Policy specifies the levels of authorization required to authorize different types of Changes and other rules for assessing Changes.
- → ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Change Management
Change Manager
- → Roles within ITIL, Change Manager
Change Model
- Change Models describe procedures for the handling of recurring Changes.

- → ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Change Management
Change Owner
- The person backing a Change and holding a budget for its implementation.
- In most cases the Change Owner is identical with the RFC initiator.
- Typically Changes are owned by Service Management roles (e.g. the Problem or Capacity Manager) or members of IT management.
Change Proposal
- A Change Proposal describes a proposed major Change, like the introduction of a new service or a substantial change to an existing service.
- The purpose of Change Proposals is to communicate a proposed major Change and assess its risk, impact and feasibility before design activities begin.
- Change Proposals are typically created in Service Portfolio Management.
- → ITIL processes, ITIL Service Strategy > Service Portfolio Management
Change Record
- The Change Record contains all the details of a Change, documenting the lifecycle of a single Change.
- It is usually created on the basis of a preceding Request for Change (RFC).
- → Checklist Change Record
- → ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Change Management
Change Request to CMS Structure
- A request from a Service Management process to change the CMS structure.

- → ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Service Asset and Configuration Management
Change Request to Enterprise Architecture
- A request to change or extend the Enterprise Architecture, usually issued from the Service Design process when the introduction or modification of a service is not possible within the constraints of the existing application, infrastructure and information/ data architectures.
- → ITIL processes, ITIL Service Design > Architecture Management
Change Request to Process Architecture
- A request to change or extend the Process Architecture, usually issued from the Service Design process when the introduction or modification of a service is not possible within the constraints of the existing process framework.

- → ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Service Asset and Configuration Management
CI Status Monitoring Report
- A report from Configuration Management covering the lifecycle of each Configuration Item, stating important CI status changes like addition, removal, responsibility change, or Downtimes (especially important for Availability Management).
