An engineering change proposal (ECP) is a formal request to modify the design or specifications of a product or system. It is typically used in engineering and manufacturing environments to document and track proposed changes and to obtain approval from relevant stakeholders for those changes.
An ECP typically contains a description of the proposed change, the justification for the change, and an evaluation of the change’s impact on the product or system. It could also include a cost and time estimate for implementing the change.
ECPs are an essential component of the change management process, as they help to ensure that changes are made in a controlled and systematic manner, taking into account all potential product or system impacts.
