How
do I request an engineering change?
You
should submit one of two forms to your Purchasing Cost
Analyst: An ECR (Engineering Change Request) or a CR (Cost
Reduction) Proposal.
The definition and use of these forms can be found in the
ICTA Procedures Manual or you can contact your
Purchasing Cost Analyst.
What is the difference between an ECR and an ECN?
An
ECR is a request for an Engineering Change. An ECN is the
result of that request. It is the ACTUAL Engineering Change.
For definitions of documents and forms, please see your ICTA Procedures Manual.
What
is a Deviation Request?
A
deviation request is a request from the supplier for permission
to ship parts to an Isuzu facility which deviate from the
specifications. This approved request is
REQUIRED in order
for a supplier to ship any parts which deviate from the most
current approved ICTA specifications.
How
do I submit a Deviation Request?
Using
the Supplier Request sheet, a deviation should be submitted
to ICTA Quality personnel.
What
is an AAS?
An
Action Authorization Sheet (AAS) is used in lieu of an ECS
or ECN when urgent action is requested to the supplier. Supplier
should take action on an AAS countermeasure immediately.
What
is the difference between an AAS and a deviation?
An
AAS is an official request for action by Engineering.
A deviation is a request from a supplier to ship parts that
do not conform to the most current specifications.
