What does EC stand for?

is being awarded a $9,950,543 delivery order against a previously issued basic order agreement (N00019-05-G-0008) for incorporation of Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) 0035, entitled Electro Optical (EO) Daylight Operations Improvements Step 2.

Possible methods are early identification through shared databases, inter-Service and inter-agency cooperation, and contractor participation; use of predictive tools; life of type buys; aggressive material improvement program and deficiency reporting programs; use of engineering change proposals (ECPs) and value engineering change proposals (VECPs) to upgrade and modernize components while maintaining interchangeability and F3 (form, fit, function); specialty manufacturers; reverse engineering; data rights; and drawing availability.

Cimatron's CAD/CAM solutions address the entire mold making process-from quoting to design, engineering changes, NC and EDM programming.

This will enable the enhanced management of design modifications so that fewer engineering changes are required later on in the product lifecycle.

Nextek has selected CircuitCAM, CheckPoint and Fusion iServer for expediting NPIs and engineering change control and will implement iView, iTrac, iQ, iMonitor and iPortal for manufacturing execution.

There have been many engineering changes at the Ford-owned team over the winter and Steve Nichols has replaced Gary Anderson as the team's technical director.

OptiPro's key modules include: Bill of Materials, Manufacturing Order, Manufacturing Process Router, Shop Floor Control, Purchase Order Requisition, MRP, Engineering Change Notice and Sales Order Configurator.

The solution, built on industry best practices, supports Change Control processes including the Engineering Change Order (ECO) process.
