What has always been good practice before, became more of a requirement after the introduction of the Sarbanes-Oxley (SOx) act of 2002, which highlighted the need for change management systems (CMS) as a part of the development life-cycle.  After searching in vain for a suitable, simple to use and affordable CMS in late 2006, we decided to resurrect ChangefIT<SUP>TM</SUP>, which had lain dormant through the years as the company changed hands.  In early 2007 we started on an ambitious 2-year project to create a CMS that met our high standards. Our goal was to produce a product that would:<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P> <UL style="MARGIN-TOP: 0cm" type=disc> <LI style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Meet compliance needs <o:p></o:p></SPAN> <LI style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Be simple to use for developers and managers <o:p></o:p></SPAN> <LI style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Increase productivity (and shatter the myth that compliance necessitates being less productive) <o:p></o:p></SPAN> <LI style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Remain affordable - it's FREE</SPAN></LI></UL> <P style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"></SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">After a complete re-design and re-development, this culminated in the release of ChangefIT<SUP>TM</SUP> v2.1 and only in October 2008 did we feel that we were ready to publish information about ChangefIT<SUP>TM</SUP>. In 2010, because of requests from our users, we have embarked on extending ChangefIT<SUP>TM</SUP> and are creating DeskfIT<SUP>TM</SUP>, a user Service Desk front-end to ChangefIT<SUP>TM</SUP>. DeskfIT<SUP>TM </SUP>is due to be released in the third quarter of 2010.  </SPAN></P> <P style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"></SPAN> </P><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"> <P style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt" class=MsoNormal> <TABLE style="BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse; BACKGROUND: #d6e3bc; BORDER-TOP: medium none; BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; mso-border-alt: solid #1F497D .5pt; mso-border-themecolor: text2; mso-yfti-tbllook: 1184; mso-padding-alt: 0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-border-insideh: .5pt solid #1F497D; mso-border-insideh-themecolor: text2; mso-border-insidev: .5pt solid #1F497D; mso-border-insidev-themecolor: text2; mso-background-themecolor: accent3; mso-background-themetint: 102" class=MsoNormalTable border=1 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 align=center> <TBODY> <TR style="mso-yfti-irow: 0; mso-yfti-firstrow: yes; mso-yfti-lastrow: yes"> <TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #1f497d 1pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: #1f497d 1pt solid; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0cm; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent; PADDING-LEFT: 5.4pt; WIDTH: 478.8pt; PADDING-RIGHT: 5.4pt; BORDER-TOP: #1f497d 1pt solid; BORDER-RIGHT: #1f497d 1pt solid; PADDING-TOP: 0cm; mso-border-alt: solid #1F497D .5pt; mso-border-themecolor: text2" vAlign=top width=638> <P style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 10pt" class=MsoNormal align=center><FONT size=3><FONT face=Calibri><B>Quotes about ChangefIT<SUP>TM</SUP></B><o:p></o:p></FONT></FONT></P> <P style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 10pt" class=MsoNormal align=center><FONT size=3><FONT face=Calibri>“You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to use it.” <BR></FONT></FONT><FONT size=3><FONT face=Calibri>CdM, European Group IT Director, The Netherlands.<o:p></o:p></FONT></FONT></P> <P style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 10pt" class=MsoNormal align=center><FONT size=3><FONT face=Calibri>“Very impressive and professional.” <BR></FONT></FONT><FONT size=3><FONT face=Calibri>HS, IT Manager, Germany.</FONT></FONT></P> <P style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 10pt" class=MsoNormal align=center><FONT size=3><FONT face=Calibri>"The use of ChangefIT raises the IT Departments' chances of meeting compliancy requirements."
