The problem, as people describe it

IT professionals at MSPs and large organizations spend significant time in Change Advisory Board (CAB) meetings simply re-explaining change requests that are already thoroughly documented. This wastes valuable technical time and creates frustration, as the meetings often serve no purpose beyond reciting written information.
