The Change Request Form 

Whoever wants changes, either the project team or sponsors, must submit the request using a change request form.  The change request form describes the impact of the change on the project, including the cost of the investigation and the cost of the change.  The purpose of the form is to minimize frivolous changes.
  
The form is used on both large and small projects and represents the minimum documentation.
