lagningsregel

Lagningsregel is a policy that governs repair and patching activities across industries. It defines when repairs are performed, who is authorized, which methods may be used, and how results are documented.

The term combines lagning (repair/patching) and regel (rule) and is used in Swedish-language contexts to describe formal procedures for maintaining equipment, software, and infrastructure.

In manufacturing and facilities, lagningsregler minimize downtime and safety risks by specifying defect thresholds, maintenance windows, and approval workflows. In IT and software, they define patch categories, testing requirements, deployment timing, rollback procedures, and record-keeping.

A typical lagningsregel includes trigger conditions (defect severity or failure), scope, roles and responsibilities, approved repair methods, validation criteria, documentation standards, and audit procedures.

Implementation requires alignment with change management and compliance requirements, and rules should be clear, measurable, and revisable to adapt to new risks or technologies.
