The ability to manage change particularly in a world where organisational re-engineering is becoming the norm will be an essential part of a company’s DNA.

Those companies that require consistency and quality in service and procedures, or simply wish to implement a more professional approach to change will gain immediate benefits by using Change Management:

• demonstrate compliance with standards and quality procedures
• prevent duplication of work effort
• provide a framework for further change (modelling successful changes)
• allow good budget control
• allow for "fall back" strategy should the change become unsuitable
• provide a method of evaluation
• help and inform the people most affected by the change
• lend support and credibility to new change initiatives
• identify and alert on the impact of unplanned changes (e.g.equipment failure)
• enable management to check at any time that change disciplines are being carried out.
