For those of you who work in industry, I am curious whether your company uses ECOs or another similar form of documentation to execute a change to a product. My company uses the CCF (Change Control Form) process, and personally, I have found it to be very cumbersome. In order to initiate a change, the change request first has to be reviewed by a change control board (CCB), which holds weekly meetings, and often there are multiple follow ups with the CCB to make sure they agree with the proposed change and sign off on it. Once the change request is approved a change notice is created with an implementation plan detailing the tasks that must be completed before the CCF can close. Any changes to this plan must be reviewed and re-approved by the CCB, which also requires filling out an addendum to the form. I understand that all of this is in place to ensure to control the changes being made, but I think the process could definitely be more streamlined. I’m interested to hear your experience with ECOs and/or your company’s equivalent document.
