Abstract: Understanding the project life cycle and the concept of change management provides many benefits that can promote improved project success.

As applied in asset ownership and management who engage in capital project delivery, this paper introduces preventive measures that can influence the decisions and actions made early in the project's development phase. These efforts will ultimately improve cost and schedule predictability. As part of this understanding, this paper will provide readers with the following:

These efforts will ultimately improve cost and schedule predictability. As part of this understanding, this paper will provide readers with the following:
- a case study that emphasizes the types of changes within the life of a project
- defined preventive measures and concepts in relation to the project life cycle
- a road map for implementing improvements
