Work Scope Definition & Over-and-Above Approval
Defines what work a depot visit will actually contain and controls the additional work discovered after the visit starts. In IFS Cloud the planned scope is assembled by prioritising pending maintenance events against a maintenance opportunity window, and the resulting work scope drives the interim MRO order structure; disposition shop orders are generated either through the initial work scope or through revaluation of that work scope after inspection of disassembled components. On the component repair side, service types both define a work scope and act as the price label for the work performed, with the part service contract as the primary source of price.
Execution steps
6 steps
The sequence somebody actually follows in IFS Cloud, step by step, written for a person doing the work rather than for a diagram.
Data requirements
11 requirements
Every entity this process needs, mapped to its IFS object, marked mandatory or optional, with the source system it comes from. This is the list a data migration is built from.
Configuration decisions
5 decisions
The choices this process forces you to make in IFS, named up front. Finding these in week nine of a program is what makes week nine expensive.
KPIs
5 measures
What this process is measured on, so the reporting requirement is known before the process is configured rather than after go-live.
Integration points
5 integrations
Where this process has to talk to something outside IFS, and what crosses the boundary.
Workshop questions
6 questions
The questions to ask the business about this process, written before the workshop. This is the difference between a design session and a discussion.
Prerequisites
4 prerequisites
What has to be true before this process can run at all: master data, other processes, setup completed elsewhere.
Industry variants
3 variants
How this process differs by industry: the parts a utility does differently from a manufacturer, already worked out rather than discovered.
Process diagram
1 BPMN diagram
A real BPMN diagram, editable in the platform, not a picture of one. It is the same diagram your team will annotate in the workshop.

Where this came from. Every process traces back to IFS documentation and release notes, so a claim about how IFS behaves can be checked rather than believed.
Every process in the library looks like this.
45 details are already worked out for this one process. A license opens them, and the other 619 processes with them.
