Engineering change approval workflow
This engineering change approval workflow gives plant teams a visible route from a change request through impact assessment, safety review, operating approval, implementation, and closeout. It distinguishes work that has a safety impact from routine changes and also separates outage work from changes that can be completed while equipment remains available.

Scenario
A plant needs a controlled route for equipment or process changes that may affect safety, production, or documentation.
Key decisions
- Incomplete packages return to the requestor.
- Only changes with safety impact route to EHS.
- The asset owner accepts the operational change.
- Outage work requires a schedule and permit.
- Commissioning includes updating controlled drawings.
When to reuse this
Use this pattern for management-of-change workflows in industrial facilities. Hazard review and permit requirements should reflect the site’s safety management system.
