Are you his line manager or just more qualified – I mean does he have any right to change said procedure? It makes a difference how you handle him. It sounds to me like he’s either an idiot or very calculating.
It would be better to thank him and then ask him to detail his suggestions in an email so you can consider them fully. You can then respond after thought and close the matter. Copy it to your line manager if you want back up. Then if he wants to discuss it verbally just say the matter is closed. Copying your reasoned response to your line manager means he (the pest) can’t then sneak anything in under the wire.
