Change-control and rollback audit

A clean audit of today’s configuration is worth little if tomorrow’s update can rewrite it without a record. We examine the path from a proposed change to a running control application.

5–9 working days Desk review of release records plus one observed change window

This audit covers application releases, rule-engine edits, dashboard writes that alter setpoints in bulk, and firmware campaigns to gateways and controllers.

We read the ticket trail (or note its absence), who can promote a build, whether staging uses the same broker as production, and what “rollback” actually means when retained MQTT messages and device flash disagree.

We also look at vendor remote sessions: who authorises them, whether they are watched, and whether the session can push a new flow without a local countersignature.

The deliverable is a change-path description, gaps against the site’s own permit-to-work or MOC procedure, and a minimum record set we recommend keeping for the next twelve months of control-application edits.
