# Change Control

## Overview

Unifize’s Change Control module ensures every change is intentional, traceable, and compliant. It connects impact analysis, approvals, and task execution—so you can manage revisions across documents and processes without losing control.

## Key Features and Benefits

Each feature in Change Control helps standardize change execution while maintaining full traceability across impacted records.
