Variations Management

Variations Management

Using Enquire’s variations management clients can ensure they use the same accountable and efficient processes in place to analyse, enact or engage on changes.

With Variations Management the duplicate process or document is branched from the original while it is being viewed and acted on.

The original content is not impacted, nor are the processes, logging, alerts and notifications. The version in variation is a replica but allows clients to change information, processing rules, and other variables, to establish the change desired.  

Variation management can be enacted for applicants and other external parties, allowing them to request a variation. Clients can determine the variables to allow variations, including data, info, project, budget, or contractual obligations. Contract changes can include payment schedule, milestones, description and more.

Variations must be approved and accepted to take effect, no data is updated until this step occurs, ensuring there is no risk of over writing original data, and to provide transparency in processes on what changed, who approved the variation and when.

• Configure what is editable in variation mode
• Engage applications, stakeholders and others on variations
• Safely retain original data until variation is approved and accepted

Enquire Variations Management uses the power of Enquire’s master data management to safely support and manage original data and variations data.
