For change management to be effective there should be a change management policy clearly defined. Apart from the policy all the procedures and the standards should also be well defined and clearly stated. The users involved should be intimated of the roles and the responsibilities clearly. The roles and the responsibilities should also be documented properly. Communication is an important part of any change management implementation. The system for communication should be effective. If there is fault in the communication system you cannot implement the change management properly. Periodically the policies should be reviewed and change if necessary.

Documentation of the processes is another important factor that should be considered in change management. Without proper documentation it is very difficult to get to know what is going on at any stage unless you are an experienced person. Documenting the requirements specification is also necessary. The Key Performance indicators (KPI) are to be noted down and tracked properly. Based on the result the process effectiveness is calculated. The bugs are tracked and fixed by the internal team.

The change requests that come are analyzed for the impact on the processes and also in the business before it is considered to be implemented. The staffs who are assigned the responsibility of implementing the change requests are also involved in the analysis if needed. The impact of the change request on the existing system is also evaluated before it is implemented.

There are many such best practices that have to be followed in order to have an effective change management.
