Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown

- ✓
Step 1: Submit change request; Step 2: Review change request; Step 3: Approve or reject change; Step 4: Update project management plan and communicate outcome.
Why this is correct

Step 1: Review change request; Step 2: Submit change request; Step 3: Approve or reject change; Step 4: Update project management plan and communicate outcome.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because reviewing a change request before it has been submitted is not possible; submission must occur first.
- ✗
Step 1: Submit change request; Step 2: Approve or reject change; Step 3: Review change request; Step 4: Update project management plan and communicate outcome.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because a decision on the change cannot be made before reviewing its impact; the review must precede the approve/reject step.
- ✗
Step 1: Submit change request; Step 2: Review change request; Step 3: Update project management plan and communicate outcome; Step 4: Approve or reject change.
Why it's wrong here
