Purpose
32014 FIS Presentation – Update 08-2014
• To display an overview of the entire ECM process per project• Communicate Change Request information to global teams
including joint ventures• Track the progress of our changes• Track timing for each change• Store and share change related documentation• Communicate priority of changes between different groups
Access
42014 FIS Presentation – Update 08-2014
• To gain access, you should submit a Stratos ticket requesting access to the ECM Tracker.
• All eValidate Applications are linked, typically if you have access to one, you will have the same user name and password for other applications.
• A direct link to the ECM Tracker can be found on the FIS NAO Product Engineering, Research & Innovation shareplace site.
Data Origin
52014 FIS Presentation – Update 08-2014
The ECM Tracker date is fueled from a report that is pulled form Galileo and is uploaded dalily by FISI.• This means that if an ECR is created after the upload has been
done, it will not show up in the ECM Tracker until the next upload.
ECR Management
62014 FIS Presentation – Update 08-2014
• The ECR filters can be used in coordination with each other or independently. So you can filter by CBU and then program, but you can also just filter by Program. This also applies for the Plants.
• Users looking for a specific ECR, they can enter the number or even just a part of the number in the “Search by ECR field” and the application will then return the ECR or ECRs that match the searched numbers.

This can be seen in the Lifecycle and Notification list tab of the individual ECR in Galileo.
ECR Management-ECR Details Page
92014 FIS Presentation – Update 08-2014
There are three main sections to the details page, the Basic description and definition of the ECR, the Assessment table, and Additonal Information
ECR Management-Evaluation
102014 FIS Presentation – Update 08-2014
• During the evaluation phase of the ECR, the program team carries out these responsibilities.
• Evaluations are done in Galileo and can be seen below.• Like the ECR details page, it is shown in the
assessment tab.

By selecting the ECO tab, this navigates the user to the ECO list- similar to the ECR list, the ECO list displays the ECOs in their various stages of progress.

ECO Steps
152014 FIS Presentation – Update 08-2014
Step 1: BOM Update/CreationThe first step occurs completely in Galileo, with the Engineer updating their eBOM and working with the PDM on any colors or variants to ensure the proper structure.
Step 2: BOM Analyst ValidationThe second step occurs outside of Galileo when the 150% eBOM is exported from Galileo and run through a validation file.
Step 3: Eng. FCS ValidationUpon the completion of a successful validation, the PDM analyst send the ECO to the FCS team for their further review.
Step 4: BOM ApprovalOnce approved, the BOM is transferred. This is a time consuming process in which Galileo transfers the mBOM into FCS and the assigned plants through the MCO.
Step 5: Closure Notification
Setting ECO Priority
162014 FIS Presentation – Update 08-2014
FCS Completion Date is a mandatory field that must be completed before any ECO can be promoted to Step 1.
Comments/Issues/On Hold
172014 FIS Presentation – Update 08-2014
The comments and issues section of individual ECOs are tracked in a central location. In addition, issues that are resolved are also tracked.
