Sivarama, Maybe what you can do is setup the auto assignment the same but setup different groups that will be assigned as the Change Manager vs Change Assignee vs Change Implementer.
Then based on the out of box notifications, you can see which ones you want to eliminate that fire at certain stages so that the Change manager (lets say) is notified after the Change ticket has been authorized and is moved to Planning In Progress. Then when the ticket goes to Scheduled, the only email that is sent out is the Change Assignee and/or Change Implementer. Then the Change Implementor or Assignee would update and then Complete the request and the email would go just back to the Change Manager letting them know that the Change was completed. This way you essentially have different groups playing different roles for your change requests and this would avoid any workflow or form customizations.

Now for each of the states in the stages obviously there is a particular group involved which does the work. I wanted to know if I can set an auto routing depending on these conditions say that after the first stage which is initiate - draft when the next stage is requested which is initiate - request for authorization the work automatically flows to the pre defined support group which deals with it. I have nothing to feed in the operational or product category currently in the company. Can I use it somehow to asign the requests?? I know it sounds complicated but I would like to know what is feasible to do without any customizations. Hope this explanation helped you to understand my problem. I can send you a more detailed explanation if required.

The Assignment Engine will assign to a Support Group based on various categorizations and locations, by application and/or service type. The Auto Assignment to individual is by company, and will work the same for every support group in that company (i.e. round robin) That's about as smart as it gets OOTB.
