I have been developing a framework model using test and development data. I need to update move or copy this model so that it runs against production data. How is this done ?
We seldom move a Framework Manager project to production, because FM projects are development in nature. What we usually move between environments is the final result(s) of the model: The packages. This is a good source for further reading:

Typically, you would have different servers with identically named data sources that are configured differently for each environment. Then you simply export the package from one environment and import it into the other. Since the data sources have the same name, no changes to the FM model are necessary.
The only other thing you could do is change the configuration on your data source to connect to your production databases instead of whatever they connect to now.
