Changes aren't necessarily about thinking you know more than the manufacturer, it could be about helping things flow better for crews or for maintenance reasons. All whilst having the OEM SOPs as a base to work from.
In making changes to SOPs many operators CAMO departments et al, will be talking to the manufacturer anyway.
