After a change request is implemented, the change requires PIR.

In the post-implementation review, consider the following:

- Did the change have the desired effect and meet the stated objectives?
- Are users and customers satisfied with the results?
- Are there any shortcomings or undesirable side effects?
- Was there a proper allocation of resources to implement the change?
- Was the change implemented on time and within budget?
- Did the backout plan function correctly?
- Was the change request properly categorized? If not, adjust as required.
- Each change request can have only one PIR.
