Joe,
 
Here at my company we use a program by the name of Agile. All "ECO's, CCR's,
Deviation's, Stop Ships, and so on" are done through this program. The nice
part about the program is that it is pretty versatile in that every change
goes through the same group or board. It doesn't matter if the change is
originated in the here in Ca., Singapore, or Holland.
 
You can import drawing files from Pro E or a scanned image from a basic
photo editor. All spec sheets, drawings, BOM redlines are added to the
change and submitted to the board for review. Once implemented the Quality
department has the responsibility of ensuring proper installation of the
most current parts and Revs.
 
It has worked well for the last 5 years or so.
 
Regards,
Josh

Subject: Global Engineering Change Process 





Associates, 

The following subject is not related to our normal subject matter, however,
I am 
hoping that some of you can provide me with some useful information for 
establishing a global engineering change order process. 

Several years ago, we were a small company with all business activities
located 
on one campus.  The Engineering Change Order process was a simple one. 

Now, we have manufacturing facilities all over the world that are supported
by 
engineering services in different locations.  We have many joint ventures
and 
collaborations with other companies where they build a product, yet we
provide 
engineering support. 

I am sure that many of you belong to companies that are in this same
situation. 
How do your companies deal with the Engineering Change process? 

All responses are appreciated. 

Regards
