In that case can't you get an outage for the duration of the changes
being applied? A pretty fundemental part of every change management
system/protocol I've ever worked under is that changes do not happen
whilst the system is in use for business processes and no users are
allowed to mess about with the system whilst changes are in progress.
If management won't OK the outages then email them to point out that
if you don't have outages to apply changes they risk making bad
decisions due to inaccurate/incomplete information. If they still
refuse (make sure they do so by email) then, diplomatically, forward
your concerns and their refusal to the senior management (ideally the
ones with big stock holdings in the company).
