Generated from a 25-second espresso preparation clip and its nine-step baseline. This is a proposed revision, not a released document. A reviewer must approve a release before the current instruction changes.

The separate complete espresso walkthrough shows the older 15-step example.

Changed work to controlled revision

Review the change before it becomes the standard.

Control keeps the current instruction in place while a proposed revision is reviewed. The document owner can check the changed steps, source video, and affected records before approving a new version.

Control workflow

Record. Compare. Review. Release.

The system can document the change automatically from video evidence, but the release still waits for a document owner or approved reviewer.

1
Select baseline

Start from the released instruction.

Choose the current controlled standard work or work instruction that the new method may replace.

2
Upload change video

Record the method that actually changed.

Swift Ops compares the new process evidence against the baseline and prepares a change summary.

3
Review the draft

Check affected steps and downstream records.

Review the proposed revision, change history, QR impact, training impact, and source evidence.

4
Approve release

Update the control matrix after approval.

The released revision becomes current, superseded versions stay visible, and linked training records can be marked for review.
