What is the role of change control boards?

To manage project finances
To allocate project resources
To screen and prioritize change requests
To monitor team performance

The correct answer is: To screen and prioritize change requests

Change control boards play a crucial role in project management by screening and prioritizing change requests. They ensure that any proposed changes to the project scope, schedule, or budget are thoroughly evaluated to determine their impact on the project. By prioritizing these change requests, the change control board helps maintain the project's focus and ensures that only necessary and beneficial changes are implemented. This process helps prevent scope creep and ensures that the project remains on track and within its original constraints. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because these roles are typically not within the primary responsibilities of change control boards. Project finances are usually managed by the project manager or financial team, project resources are typically allocated by the project manager based on the project plan, and monitoring team performance is usually done by the project manager or a designated project team member.
