Change requests are more likely to occur in the early stages of a project, when the requirements are being elicited, analyzed, and validated. During this time, stakeholders may discover new needs, identify gaps, or revise their expectations. Change requests may also arise due to changes in the business environment, such as new regulations, market trends, or competitor actions. Change requests are less frequent in the later stages of a project, when the requirements are more stable and the solution is being designed, developed, and tested. References:
