View Control Practices  help

Hide Control Practices  help

  1. Ensure that a documented process exists within the overall change management process to declare, assess, authorise and record an emergency change.
  2. Ensure that emergency changes are processed in accordance with the emergency change element of the formal change management process.
  3. Ensure that all emergency access arrangements for changes are appropriately authorised, documented and revoked after the change has been applied.
  4. Conduct a post-implementation review of all emergency changes, involving all concerned parties. The review should consider implications for aspects such as further application system maintenance, impact on development and test environments, application software development quality, documentation and manuals, and data integrity.
