Implementation And Validation
Keeping actions, issues, checks, evidence, and closure tied to the approved change.
Implementation and validation are where approved change meets operational reality. The work is not finished when a change is signed off; it is finished when actions are completed, checks are performed, issues are resolved, and the new state is shown to work as intended.
This is where many change processes break down. Sites approve changes carefully, then close them loosely, leaving open questions about readiness, evidence, and actual field adoption.
