General

Configuration Management (CM) is the ongoing process of identifying and managing changes to deliverables and other work products. The IROC Project will utilize the processes found in the Configuration Management Plan to manage changes and facilitate stakeholder participation.

User Suggestions

Users wishing to submit suggestions for the IROC system are encouraged to complete a Change Request Form and e-mail it to ross_iroc_suggestions@firenet.gov.

Configuration Management Coordinator

The Change Management Coordinator (CMC) has the following responsibilities:

• Gathers and reviews all proposed change requests.
• Determines adequacy of supporting documentation and, if necessary, returns inadequately documented Change Requests (CR) to the submitting party for further documentation.
• Categorizes Change Requests.
• Enters Change Requests into the Configuration Management Repository (CMR).
• Prepares change request submissions for review by the CCB, as appropriate.
• Facilitates, through the build process, any CR having security consideration (as identified in the SIA) to assure that the CR addresses security issues throughout the life cycle of the build (e.g., Requirements, Design, Test).
• Coordinates with the IROC Project Test Coordinator to ensure the Test Coordinator conducts a post implementation review.
