Work Practice InstructionsWPI0004October 29, 2004Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) Executive SummaryEngineering Change Proposals are the “umbrella” under which all components (ECOs, ACOs,DCRs, Modification Notes, etc.) of a system modification are organized. An approved ECP isrequired prior to incorporation of the various components into the WSR-88D baseline. Thisdocument outlines the procedures to produce, submit, review and adjudicate ECPs with a cost of 100,000 to 1,000,000.5

Work Practice InstructionsWPI0004October 29, 2004Launching the ECP ProcessTo activate a project, a request is made at a TRC meeting to remove a CCR(s) from theSystem Project Pool, which will then become an ECP. The TRC will assign the project leadand team members at this time.Creating the ECP TemplateThe CM Analyst will create the ECP template and populate the following fields:On the Cover Page –NumberChange TypeClassChange AdministratorDate OriginatedPriorityOriginatorTitleProduct LineStatusWorkflow7

Work Practice InstructionsWPI0004October 29, 2004On the Detail Tab –TypeEngineering AreaCognizant EngineerTeam MembersECP NumberDriving CCRsUpon completing the fields listed above, the CM Analyst will advance the CCR to CMAllocation status. At this status the CM Analyst assigns team members and the branchchief as approvers on the Signoff tab.The CM Analyst will advance the ECP to Pending status and send an email notificationto the originator (project lead) that the ECP has been produced.8

Work Practice InstructionsWPI0004October 29, 2004The ECP is now available to be worked by the project lead. The project lead can viewthe ECP clicking on the Agile document link (P7071.agm) in the email notification.This will launch Agile.The Welcome to Agile CM login screen will be displayed. Complete the Username andPassword information and click OK.9

Work Practice InstructionsWPI0004October 29, 2004The ECP (7071) will be displayed.10

Work Practice InstructionsWPI0004October 29, 2004ECP WorkflowECPs Over 100,000 (Preliminary)For projects costing 100,000 - 1,000,000, it is understood that these are large and oftencomplicated projects. Therefore, the ECP process allows for approval of these large projects totake place in a two part format – as Preliminary and Formal ECPs. Preliminary ECPs are todescribe the format of the project – a framework of the problem description, proposed solutionand implementation of the project. The Preliminary ECP should be a strong, well developed“skeleton” of the plan, with the Formal ECP filling in all the details and “fleshing out” the project.1. Pending StatusThe project lead will receive the Preliminary ECP in Pending status. All preparatorywork for the ECP will be performed while the ECP is in this status.The project lead should begin his ECP process with a team meeting. (The project teammembers will have been listed on the Detail tab of the ECP.) During Pending status, theproject lead must conduct at least one team meeting.During the team meeting, the team members should provide much of the informationrequired to populate the ECP.11

Work Practice InstructionsWPI0004October 29, 2004Populating the Preliminary ECPA. Cover PageComplete the following blocks on the Cover Page of the ECP:Description of Change:This field will contain the title of the ECP (entered by the CM Analyst).Enter a blank line after the title and then enter a description of theproposed change. The description should identify the affected portion ofthe system and the problem in question.Note: Many of the blocks on the Agile ECP form have limited characterlengths, thus limiting the amount of data that can be entered. Therefore, anattachment must be used to include all necessary information in the ECP.Attachment A is used for this purpose. The template for Attachment Acan be found on the Attachments tab of this WPI and an example of thetemplate has been included in Appendix C of this document.Reason For Change:Enter a proposed solution in sufficient detail to adequately describe whatthe project is to accomplish.12

Work Practice InstructionsWPI0004October 29, 2004B. Detail TabComplete the following blocks on the Detail Tab:Justification Code:Select one of the following from the Justification Code drop-down list:Interface – To eliminate incompatibility between CIs.Compatibility – Proposed change is necessary to make the system/item work.Deficiency – Eliminate a deficiency (use if more descriptive code doesn’t apply.)Operational or Logistics Support – Make a significant change in operationalcapability or logistic support. (Commonly known as an improvement change.)Production Stoppage – To prevent slippage in an approved production schedule.Cost Reduction – To provide net total like cycle cost savings to the Government.Safety – To correct a hazardous condition.Value Engineering – For a net life cycle cost reduction.CI/CPCI Number/Title:Select from the CI/CPCI Number/Title drop-down list all knownapplicable CIs (CPCIs for SW Build Release ECPs) affected by thisproposed change. All CIs and CPCIs are listed in Appendix B of thisdocument.Technical Manuals:Select from the Technical Manual drop-down list all known TechnicalManuals affected by the proposed change. All Technical Manuals arelisted in Appendix B of this WPI.13

Work Practice InstructionsWPI0004October 29, 2004Estimated Hard Costs:Calculate estimated hard costs (procurements, travel, printing, field labor,shipping, media, credit card purchases, etc.) for the project.Effectivity:The project lead is not expected to know the full effectivity at this point in alarge project. However, a rough indication of effectivity, such as “Willaffect all FAA sites” or “Anticipate fleet-wide installation” should beincluded on the Attachments tab as Attachment E.Soft Costs (ROC Hours):Obtain from each team member an estimated number of staff hours he orshe will spend on the project. Enter the team’s total hours in the SoftCosts block on the Detail tab of the ECP.Deployment Date:At this point, the project lead is not expected to know the deployment datefor the project. However, a brief breakdown of a proposed developmentschedule should be provided and included on the Attachments tab asAttachment S.Please Note: The Suspense Date and Type of Review blocks will becompleted by the CM Analyst when the ECP is routed for review.However, the Suspense Date and Type of Review blocks may be completedby the project lead to reflect the 7-day project team review period, if he sochooses.14

Work Practice InstructionsWPI0004October 29, 2004C. ECP Page 3At this point it is not anticipated that the project lead will have muchinformation for Page 3 of the ECP. However, if the project lead has anyinformation for the items on this page, it should be included.D. Affected Items TabNo items are to be added to the Affected Items tab!If ECOs have been produced, they should be listed on the Detail tab in theAssociated CCRs/ECOs/PCRs block of the ECP. The ECO process isexplained in Agile Work Practice Instructions WPI0010.E. Signoff TabThe Signoff tab is populated by the CM Analyst and the Agile workflow.F. Attachments TabECP attachments will vary from ECP to ECP; however, the Attachments tab of aPreliminary ECP is to contain all documentation needed to gain approval forcontinued development of the proposed change. Preliminary ECPs must contain afully developed business case, basic development schedule, and rough indicationof effectivity attachments. Attachment B is used for the business case. Instructionsfor producing a business case can be found in Appendix D of this document. For15

Work Practice InstructionsWPI0004October 29, 2004reference, an example business case attachment has also been included in AppendixD.To add attachments, select the Attachments tab, place the cursor in the whitespace on the tab and click the mouse button.

Project Team Reviewa.When the ECP is routed for review, the project team members will have 7 days toprovide approval or disapproval of the ECP. Agile automatically monitors thisprocess, which requires a response from all team members. Any team memberswho have not provided a decision within 5 days will receive an email reminderfrom Agile.Please Note: If a decision is not received by the end of the 7-day review cycle, Agileescalates the ECP to the team member’s team lead for action.22
