Editor's Notes
- #4 WHY? Change happens, back orders happen, materials and materielschange, customer request, cost, product improvementGive a detailed documentation of the evolution of the product. We will be able to look back at what was changed and why.
- #5 First principle; each company is unique, there isn’t one CM protocol but there are guidelines and procedures that can be tailored for the company. If an issue arises with the product (within a division or subpart) when is it necessary to submit/request for CM change.
- #6 Product Atts. Clear statements of what the product needs to have and its functionality; Basis, the defining, labeling, verification, management and accountability; Product Identifier, how will different product be distinguished, sub-units and informationA: 60mph car B: How fast 0-60 C: Design/Aesthetics (V6/V8/V12 Engine)
- #7 Top execs from each department to rightfully represent each part of the product. Is the change really necessary? What is going to be the impact? Will be cost savings or overruns? Are we still meeting the customer requirements?Run the meetings with detail. Prioritize and Classify. Stop the variance, don’t treat the symptom, treat the cause. Is it a MAJOR or MINOR change?
- #8 Can anyone understand the change? Can the appropriate parties understand. Can the customer see the evolution. Traceability. Milestone reports
- #10 What it isThe principlesWhy we need it and how it helps
