Hello Brian,
I don't know about any open source product but I my company we do use Mercury ITG solution (IT Governance) http://www.mercury.com/us/products/it-governance-center/change-management/
The application runs IT like a business and it has the following functionalities (I think, each module can be purchased separately):
Demand Management Portfolio Management Program Management Project Management Financial Management Resource Management Change Management Time Management IT Governance Foundation IT Governance Center Services
It works great since it integrates your IT infrastructure and fully automated using your messaging platforms.
Regards Serge

Can some of you all share how you handle Change Management on your networks? Everything from serious changes to something mundane like changing a customer IP address.
Where I worked before, large service-affecting changes (code upgrade on routers/switches, circuit re-grooms and the like) were discussed in a semi-weekly change management meeting. The change was approved or not approved by management and normally the engineer who scheduled the change was the one who did the change. The standard maintenance window was 1 to 5 AM regardless of the day.
Smaller changes like new customer circuit turn-ups, static routes, customer BGP changes, etc could be done on the fly in many cases.
As for the software, we has a homegrown app we wrote in PHP originally, then the change management functionality was rolled into our existing trouble ticket/case management system.
jms
I would hope there is some good open source tools for this purpose.
BTW, we already use "configuration management" tools like RANCID, but I am
needing something that people can use to log a change, who did it, why, when, etc, so its accounted for BEFORE it happens.
Thanks,
Brian
