All-in-One Business Impact Analysis Template Toolkit
Top Impact Assessment Templates for Assessing & Managing Any Kind of Change
To effectively conduct a change impact assessment to identify, analyze, track, and manage impacted users, you’ll need the following key items:
- A streamlined business impact analysis template for all aspects of your end-to-end impacts analysis.
- A seamless change impact assessment matrix template for tracking, engaging, and/or training impacted users.
- A reporting dashboard that is linked to your business change impact analysis template, and provides real-time reports that you can present to key stakeholders, sponsors, program team, change team, and management.
As a Senior Change Management Lead, I have successfully delivered transformational business, social and culture changes that impacted hundreds of thousands of individuals across the Federal Reserve Bank, Intel, Accenture, Cisco, Apple, Deloitte, Capital One, Fannie Mae, AIG, HSBC, and other organizations.
Throughout my change management career, one major pain point I have heard from hundreds of practitioners has been a lack of a consistent, standardized, and best-in-class assessment template and tool that can be used to assess any kind of change including business impacts, software or technology change impacts, social changes, culture changes, process changes, policy changes, and even climate change impact assessments.
And so, as a Pioneer of best business, social, and organizational toolkits and a strong advocate of the global innovation community I decided to work with OCM Solution (formerly AGS) Designers and Developers to launch the #1 top-ranked Business Impact Analysis Template below that any change practitioner, organization or consulting firm can use, irrespective of experience.

Developing The Impact Assessment Template and Tool Discussed Above
As a Senior Change Management Program Manager, I have spent the last decade increasing change adoption and project implementation successes across different industries, sectors, and organizations.
I often get questions from change and project managers on how best to measure the impact of a project, program, or initiative.
Sample questions people have asked that led to the development of this impact assessment tool and template included: “is there a simple-to-use impact assessment template or tool that can be used on any project?” “What are the best impact analysis software or project impact measurement tools to use this year?”
And this is a very common one: “do you have templates for presenting change impact assessment reports to senior leaders?”
Based on the ever-increasing demand for the best change impact template and tool, I decided to work with the developers here at OCM Solution (formerly AGS) to develop a user-friendly, advanced, and simple-to-use impact analysis software tool.
Using the change impact assessment template and database provided, you can easily track the severity of impacts across the organization, including the number of groups and departments that are impacted by the severity of impact. Easily eliminate the guesswork on who is impacted, as well as the severity and magnitude of the impacts.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Change Impact Assessment Matrix Tool FAQ
How do you write an impact assessment?
You would begin by assessing the impact a project will have on organizational groups, job roles, and external stakeholders. It’s important to fully understand the project so you can identify who is being impacted and how.
Using a change impact analysis tool, you will then want to enter data on your impacted groups and indicate the level of impact each one has. Not all groups are impacted equally in many cases.
Generate reporting on who is being impacted, how they are being impacted, and the severity of the impact. It’s helpful if you are using tools for impact analysis that generate analytics automatically for you.
What are the different types of impact assessment?
When doing a change impact assessment using impact analysis tools, there are different types of assessments you can do, depending upon the level of detail needed.
Different types of impact assessment include:
• Organizational-level impact assessment
• Stakeholder-level impact assessment
• External stakeholder impact assessment
• Agile project impact assessment
What columns should be included in a change impact matrix?
You should at minimum include columns in your impact assessment template Excel or cloud template that capture the following details:
• Names of organizational groups being impacted
• Names of job roles being impacted
• The “As-Is” or current state of the process/system
• The “To-Be” or future state of the process/system
• The level of impact
What is the impact assessment of a project?
A project impact assessment evaluates which groups of people in an organization will have to change the way they do things due to a project that is happening.
A project impact assessment template can also look at which external groups will be impacted by a company project, such as customers and vendors.
