An industrial machine management system includes circuitry that collects changeable setting data of an industrial machine, determines, based on the setting data at each time point of multiple time points, whether a change has been made to the setting data, obtains change information regarding the change when the change is determined as having been made to the setting data, determines whether a predetermined event has occurred in the industrial machine, identifies, when the predetermined event is determined as having occurred, the change information such that the change information is related to the predetermined event, and outputs the change information that is identified.
