FAVORABLE
Preferred Change Request Procedure
"Any party may request a change to the scope, deliverables, or timelines of the project by submitting a written Change Request to the other party. The Change Request must include a detailed description of the proposed change, the rationale for the change, and any anticipated impact on the project, including cost and schedule implications."
NEUTRAL
Fallback Change Approval Process
"Upon receipt of a Change Request, the receiving party shall review the request and provide a written response within ten (10) business days. The response shall indicate whether the receiving party accepts, rejects, or proposes modifications to the Change Request. If modifications are proposed, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to reach a mutually acceptable agreement."
