documents and implements change within both its internal and external processes. The change management process helps mitigate risks by documenting all changes to IT infrastructure, managed systems, processes, and IT related life cycles.</p> <h3>What is the process?</h3> <p>Change requests are presented weekly on Tuesdays for a start date of that Thursday for 9:30pm or later. All changes require a review and approval by the Change Advisory Board (CAB) prior to implementing the change.</p> <h3>What requires a change request? </h3> <p>The addition, modification, or removal of anything that could have an effect on an existing service. The scope should include changes to all architectures, processes, tools, metrics, and documentation, as well as changes to IT services and other configuration items. </p> <h3>Planned changes service status:</h3> <p>Visit the <a href="https://cpp.service-now.com/ehelp?id=services_status">eHelp IT Services Status</a> page for current and planned status information.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="card"> <div class="card-header" id="heading2"> <h2 class="m-0"> <button aria-controls="collapse1-2" aria-expanded="false" class="btn btn-link" data-target="#collapse1-2" data-toggle="collapse"> Project Management </button> </h2> </div> <div aria-labelledby="heading2" class="collapse " data-parent="#accordion-1" id="collapse1-2"> <div class="card-body"> <h3>What is IT Project Management?</h3> <p>IT project management is the process of assisting and managing the organization, plan, and accountability of the team in order to collectively achieve the information technology goals within the project's defined timeline.</p> <p><img alt="Project Management Life Cycle." class="image-right-small" height="184" src="img/ppmo01.png" width="262"/></p> <p> </p> <h4>What is a Project?</h4> <p>A project is a temporary, organized effort to complete a set of work to deliver a new product or service. A project has a defined beginning and end dates, a defined scope, and resources. A project can be small and contained within a department or it can be large and span across different departments and divisions.</p> <h3>IT Projects</h3> <p>Projects requiring IT resources must first be reviewed and approved by the IT CAB (IT Cabinet). IT review and approval are needed to commit resources and manage timelines alongside existing projects currently being implemented. Each project is unique and may require services from various branches of IT for implementation.</p> <p>IT will not commit to a project until the review process is completed, roles and responsibilities are documented, and a project charter is developed.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="card"> <div class="card-header" id="heading3"> <h2 class="m-0"> <button aria-controls="collapse1-3" aria-expanded="false" class="btn btn-link" data-target="#collapse1-3" data-toggle="collapse"> Business Process Management </button> </h2> </div> <div aria-labelledby="heading3" class="collapse " data-parent="#accordion-1" id="collapse1-3"> <div class="card-body"> <h3>What is Business Process Management?</h3> <p>Business Process Management at Cal Poly Pomona is an interdisciplinary approach to identify, design, execute, document, measure, monitor, control, and improve business processes (automated or otherwise) to achieve consistent results, aligned with the strategic objectives of Cal Poly Pomona.</p> <h4>The Business Process Lifecycle</h4> <p>The business process lifecycle is a cyclical process that promotes continuous improvement. The core components of the business process lifecycle are as follows:</p> <p><strong>01</strong> Design: Identify existing processes</p> <p><strong>02</strong> Model: Visualize the model in a flow chart</p> <p><strong>03</strong> Execute: Run the process in a real-life environment</p> <p><strong>04</strong> Monitor: Develop Key Performance Indicators (KPI`s) and monitor execution</p> <p><strong>05</strong> Optimize: Continuous improvement</p> <p><img alt="Graphic of Business Process Life Cycle." class="image-regular" height="359" src="img/ppmo02.png" width="468"/> </p> <h4>Business Process Modeling</h4> <p>The purpose of business process modeling is to document or “map” processes in a workflow to achieve a unified visual representation of all connected activities within a process.
