Multiple people working in a given project
Different versions of documents/Software
Different releases to customers
Need for coordination
&
Streamlined processes

Terminologies
VersionSpecific version of a configuration item
ECR_BRD V0.1.doc
ECR_BRD V0.2.doc
Baseline A specification or product that has been formally reviewed andagreed to by responsible management, that thereafter serves as thebasis for further development, and can be changed only throughformal change control procedures
ECR_BRD V1.0.doc
ECR_BRD V2.0.doc
As systems are developed, there could be different baselines
• Developmental baseline
• Functional baseline
• Product baseline

SCM Process
Identification of CI Identify and name each item separately
Categorize
Change Control Change request
Approval/Rejection by change control board
Checkout CI
Make Changes
Review and Check in changes
Version Control Procedures to manage different versions of CI
12Note : CI : Configuration Item

SCM Process
Configuration audit Ensure configuration plan is adhered to
Any non compliance identified
Any corrective measures
Reporting Status of configuration audit – Who did what, when and what
else is affected
