Cost baseline (Section 7.3.3.1).

Subsidiary plans include, but are not limited to:

Among other things, the project management plan may also include the following:
Life cycle selected for the project and the processes that will be applied to each phase;

Details of the tailoring decisions specified by the project management team as follows:

○ Project management processes selected by the project management team,
○ Level of implementation for each selected process,
○ Descriptions of the tools and techniques to be used for accomplishing those processes, and
○ Description of how the selected processes will be used to manage the specific project, including the dependencies and interactions among those processes and the essential inputs and outputs.
Description of how work will be executed to accomplish the project objectives;

Once the project management plan is baselined, it may only be changed when a change request is generated and approved through the Perform Integrated Change Control process.
