Engineering Change
Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs) required to be submitted to the Government are classified as either Class I or Class II. A Class I ECP is approved by the Government and authorized with a contract modification. A Class II change is reviewed for concurrence in classification by the FAA Quality Reliability Officer (QRO).
If the Contractor determines that a requirement, design, and equipment change is necessary, the Contractor must submit an ECP.
C.3.5.3.1.1 Class I Change Definition A proposed engineering change to a CI, or any combination or discrete portion thereof, must be Class I if the functional or allocated baselines, once established, are affected to the extent that a proposed change affects the CI’s form, fit, and function; corrects a deficiency; or impacts logistic documentation or support. The terms “Form”, “Fit”, “Function” and “Deficiency” are defined as follows:
(a) Form – The physical configuration (shape) of an item to ensure interchangeability and compatibility with intended applications;
(b) Fit – The description of input/output characteristics to ensure interoperability with related interfacing items;
(c) Function – The performance characteristics to ensure that the item is capable of doing its intended job; and
(d) Deficiency – Any combination or characteristic of the CI which is not in compliance with the established baseline.
The Contractor must prepare a Class I ECP if the proposed change to a CI or part thereof results in any of the following requirements being outside specified limits or specified tolerances:
(a) Performance;
(b) Reliability, maintainability, safety;
(c) Weight, balance, moment of inertia, physical dimensions;
(d) Interface characteristics;
(e) Electromagnetic characteristics; and
(f) Other technical requirements in FAA-E-2999.
C.3.5.3.1.2 Class I Changes The Contractor must submit all Class I ECPs along with all supporting documentations and all test documented results to the CO or his/her designated Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR), with a copy to the FAA QRO. The Government will have 30 calendar days to review the subsequent ECP. If approved, the Contractor must proceed with the engineering change. The Contractor must submit to the CO and COR all changes to documentation resulting from the approved ECP. The documentation includes, at a minimum, all affected assembly drawings, LMI, and TIB change pages within 30 calendar days of FAA approval. All changed documentation must have all changes within it highlighted by change bars and was/now annotations. ECPs will be applicable and required for all equipment procured throughout the life of the contract, including option years.
If the change is not approved, the Contractor must withdraw it or resubmit with further clarification of the proposed change(s). If Class I ECP changes are approved by the FAA, they are at no additional cost to the Government.
C.3.5.3.1.3 Class II Change Definition An engineering change which impacts none of the Class I form, fit and function factors of C.3.5.3.1.1 must be classified as a Class II engineering change.
C.3.5.3.1.4 Class II Changes The Contractor must submit Class II ECPs to the FAA QRO and FAA COR. The FAA QRO is responsible to determine ECPs classification concurrence and approval. The FAA has 7 calendar days to review and approve Class II ECPs. If approved, the Contractor must submit to the CO and COR all changes to documentation resulting from the approved Class II ECPs within 30 calendar days of FAA approval. The documentation includes, at a minimum, all affected assembly drawings, and TIB change pages. All changed documentation must have all changes within it highlighted by change bars and was/now annotations.
