4.1 General
The steps in processing an engineering change consist of the following:
(a) determination of a need for the change, (b) establishment by the originator of a classifications of the engineering change as Class I or Class II, (c) preparation of an ECP, (d) submittal to the Government, (e) review, (f) approval/disapproval or concurrence/nonoccurrence in classification, and (g) incorporation of approved (or concurred in) engineering changes in the configuration item and in the data, including when applicable, negotiation into the contract.
