What is impact analysis?
Impact Analysis is the process of evaluating the impact that a change (technical, design or organizational) may have on a product, system or business process. In industry, this analysis is critical to understanding the consequences of a change on related components, documentation, production cycles, costs, quality, and lead times. Impact Analysis is a strategic tool to prevent errors, rework, production interruptions, and to support data-driven decisions. It often integrates with PLM, PDM and CAD systems to provide a complete view of dependencies and relationships between elements.
