Change assimilation
●
  Revise software test and evaluation work assignments, plans, and procedures.
●
  Accommodate the impact of the change, if any, into software post-development 
processes.
The anticipated rework and alterations to software development tasks must be 
estimated to provide a complete understanding of the magnitude of the proposed 
change on the technical work packages. Task dependencies must be considered 
when adjusting work package definitions. It is important to recognize any delays in 
subsequent tasks incurred by work package alterations. Task resource budgets must 
be reassessed to ensure that they are adequately provisioned to support the remain-
ing technical efforts. This assessment must account for the work remaining to com-
plete the software development effort and the resources (funding, labor, equipment 
items, etc.) appropriate for effective task execution.
