Regulations
Control Stability vs Process Change
Business ContextStable controls support consistent execution, documentation, training, and assurance. Business processes, systems, products, regulations, and organizational structures can change rapidly, making established controls ineffective or misaligned with new operating conditions.
Audit TRIZ ResolutionConnect control maintenance directly to process change. Significant changes trigger impact assessments for affected controls, while control objectives remain stable where the underlying risk has not changed. Only the mechanisms necessary to preserve the control function are modified.
Applicable TRIZ Principles
Principle 15 – Dynamics allows control mechanisms to adapt as processes change.
Principle 23 – Feedback uses process changes and control performance to trigger reassessment.
Principle 10 – Prior Action evaluates control implications before operational changes are implemented.
Expected Outcome
More resilient controls
Faster adaptation to change
Reduced obsolete controls
Preserved control continuity
Decision Indicators
Controls continue unchanged after major process modifications.
New systems bypass controls designed for previous workflows.
Control documentation no longer reflects actual operations.
Control redesign occurs primarily after failures.
Business changes repeatedly create temporary control gaps.
