nt systems, then each should be described, as well as their relationship to each other. The SCMP describes the implementation tasks that are to be carried out. The acceptance criterion for software CM implementation is that the tasks in the SCMP have been carried out in their entirety. Documentation should exist that shows that the configuration management tasks for that activity group have been successfully accomplished. In particular, the documentation should show that configuration items have been appropriately identified; that configuration baselines have been established for the activity group; that an adequate change control process has been used for changes to the product baseline; and that appropriate configuration audits have been held for the configuration items created or modified for the activity group. Each configuration item should be labeled unambiguously so that a basis can be established for the control and reference of the configuration items defined in the SCMP. Configuration baselines should be established for each life cycle activity group, to define the basis for further development, allow control of configuration items, and permit traceability between configuration items. The baseline should be established before the set of activities can be considered complete. Once a baseline is established, it should be protected from change. Change control activities should be followed whenever a derivative baseline is developed from an established baseline. A baseline should be traceable to the baseline from which it was established, and to the design outputs it identified or to the activity with which it is associated. Configuration control actions should be used to control and document changes to configuration baselines. A configuration control board (CCB) should exist with the authority to authorize all changes to baselines. Problem reports should be prepared to describe anomalous and inconsistent software and documentation. Problem reports that
