Correct answer & explanation
✓
Project Manager
The Project Manager assesses each Request for Change, evaluates its impact on the project's baselines, and provides the necessary information to the Change Authority for a decision. This ensures that the Change Authority can make an informed choice. The Project Manager is accountable for the change control procedure and acts as the link between those raising changes and those deciding on them.

- ✗
Senior User
Why it's wrong here
The Senior User is a member of the Project Board and may be involved in change decisions if they are escalated. However, the Senior User does not provide the detailed assessment of a Request for Change to the Change Authority. That is an operational task performed by the Project Manager, who ensures the Change Authority has the necessary information.
- ✗
Team Manager
Why it's wrong here
The Team Manager is responsible for delivering the products within a Work Package and may raise issues or changes. However, the Team Manager does not assess and present the details of a Request for Change to the Change Authority. This is a Project Manager responsibility, as the Project Manager owns the change control process.
- ✗
Project Support
Why it's wrong here
Project Support provides administrative support, such as maintaining the change log and distributing information. However, it is the Project Manager's responsibility to assess and present the details of a Request for Change to the Change Authority. Project Support does not make decisions or provide the analysis required for change control.
- ✓
Project Manager
Why this is correct
The Project Manager is responsible for assessing the impact of a Request for Change and presenting the details to the Change Authority for a decision. This includes evaluating the change against the project's baselines and providing a recommendation. The Project Manager acts as the conduit between the change initiator and the decision-maker.
