Draft a Change Request Document

What You'll Get

A complete change request document covering description, affected systems, risk assessment, implementation steps, rollback procedure, and pre/post verification checks — ready for change management approval.

The Prompt

Write a formal IT change request for [describe the change]. Systems affected: [list]. Risk level: [low/medium/high]. Change window: [date/time]. Rollback plan: [describe]. Include pre-change verification, step-by-step implementation, and post-change validation.

Tips

The rollback plan is what change management boards scrutinize most — be specific about exactly how you'd reverse the change, not just "restore from backup." Add the change window duration estimate to avoid ambiguous approval windows.
