Abstract: A method of detecting and tracking changes in engineering configuration data (ECD) for control and instrumentation (C&I) systems (105a-d) in an industrial facility (105). First ECD (164a) in a first data format used in a first C&I system (105a) and second ECD (164b) in a second data format used in a second C&I system (105b) are converted (350) into a common format. The first and second ECD are stored together as reference snapshot data (258) with a timestamp in a single information source. At a second time, after the first time reflected in the timestamp, the first and the second ECD are obtained. The first ECD and the second ECD obtained at the second time are converted (350) into the common format that collectively provides updated snapshot data (254). Changes are detected (370) between the first ECD and the second ECD obtained at the first time and the first ECD and the second ECD obtained at the second time by comparing the reference snapshot data to the updated snapshot data.
