For that we have the TTL (time to live) value in the DNS records. Lower the TTL value to 300 (5 mins) of the respective record 24 hours before the change then other DNS servers / caches / clients are instructed to check back within the given time. After the change you can go back to 24hours (86400). If ISPs have a fixed cache time out that would be against the IETF.

Ask folk (ISPs) to flush their DNS caches after DNS changes made?
