Implementation

After the required approvals are received, the change request moves to the Implementation stage, where the change is implemented through tasks in projects caused by the change.

In this stage, the change manager will lay out the higher-level objectives and break them down into projects caused by change, milestones, and tasks, depending on the work involved.
 
The required teams are assembled and added to specific tasks and projects, keeping in mind the downtime and other constraints.
