Configuration Control Board

(Alias: CCB, change control board)

A group of project stakeholders responsible for:

  • Evaluating and approving or disapproving proposed changes to a system
  • Prioritizing the incorporation of approved changes
  • Scheduling the changes for forthcoming releases.

In some projects the CCB may also be responsible for verifying that approved changes are implemented.

Medium to large projects may have more than one CCB. For example, an external CCB comprising users, developers and marketing people is formed to deal with changes that will impact the customer. That is, product features, cost and delivery date. An internal CCB comprising developers and technical managers is formed to deal with changes in design approaches that will not be visible to the customer or impact costs and delivery dates.

A Configuration Control Board (CCB) is a group that formally reviews proposed changes to products or documents. The CCB is responsible for approving, rejecting or deferring changes to the software. It is a quality assurance process that ensures that no unauthorized changes are made to the product. Now I need to get best parental monitoring apps for cell phone so that I could watch my children.
