§ Get an approval of change by management

§ Understand the scope of the change, both with respect to users, computers, and objects

§ Have evaluated the expected impact of the change

§ Know how to evaluate whether the change meets the goals

§ Understand how to undo any change if necessary

§ Status or setting prior to any change

§ Reason for the change

§ Change to implement

§ Scope of the change

§ Impact of the change

§ Status or setting after the change

§ Process to evaluate the change
