DATA ITEM DESCRIPTION

Title: ENGINEERING CHANGE PROPOSAL (ECP)

Number: DI-CMAN-80639C Approval Date: 20000930 AMSC Number: D7388 Limitation: N/A DTIC Applicable: No GIDEP Applicable: No Office of Primary Responsibility: D/DUSD(AT&L)SE Applicable Forms: N/A

Use, Relationships: An Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) provides the documentation in which the engineering change is described. It includes change impacts to systems, configuration items and other associated configuration documentation affected by the proposed change. In addition, it typically describes how the proposed change will be implemented along with providing estimated schedules and associated costs.

This Data Item Description (DID) contains the format, content and preparation instructions for the data product resulting from the work task specified in the contract. This DID is used in conjunction with a Notice of Revision (NOR) (DI-CMAN-80642B). A requirement for NORs should be contractually imposed in conjunction with this DID.

Data Item submittal in Extensible Markup Language (XML) is acceptable. An XML

This DID supersedes DI-CMAN-80639B.

Requirements:

1. Reference documents. The applicable issue of any documents cited herein, including their approval dates and dates of any applicable amendments, notices, and revisions, shall be as specified in the contract.

2. Format and content. The Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) shall be prepared in contractor format. . The ECP content shall include, where applicable, the following information:

a. the change priority, change classification, and change justification

b. a complete description of the change to be made and the need for that change

c. complete listing of other configuration items impacted by the proposed change and a description of the impact on those CIs.
