Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Configuration management plan
Why it's wrong here
The configuration management plan defines how configuration items are identified, controlled and audited; it is a governing process document, not a record of individual changes. It is tempting because configuration control underpins change management, but the requested artefact is the change log listing each change's status and impact.
- ✗
Risk register
Why it's wrong here
A risk register catalogues identified risks with probability, impact and mitigation owners; it does not record change requests. It is tempting because both registers track items with impact ratings, but risks are potential future events, whereas the change log tracks actual modifications, their approval status and effect on the project.
- ✓
Change log
Why this is correct
The change log records every project change with its status, approver and impact assessment, providing the audit trail the stem requires. It captures modifications throughout the project lifecycle, unlike a risk register or issue log.
- ✗
Issue log
Why it's wrong here
An issue log records problems, their owners and resolution status, not change requests. It is tempting because issues and changes both track items through statuses, but the axis differs: issues capture defects and blockers, whereas the change log records each change's approval, impact and implementation status.
