Business-as-Code

Read as an executable program — the work decomposed into Code, Generative, Agentic, and Human.

Manage design change sits inside a larger value-flow — 1 parent structure it composes into. The hierarchy is grounding, not the story: it tells you which aggregate exposure Manage design change inherits.

How the work flows

Trigger: An engineering change request is submitted due to a defect, cost-reduction opportunity, supplier modification, or regulatory update.

  1. Receive and log the engineering change request (ECR)
  2. Evaluate the technical, financial, and production impact of the change
  3. Draft the engineering change order (ECO) with updated specifications and CAD models
  4. Validate the modified design via simulation or physical prototyping
  5. Route the ECO for cross-functional approval from engineering, manufacturing, and procurement
  6. Release the updated engineering bill of materials (eBOM) and work instructions

Outcome: The design modification is validated, approved, and released to manufacturing as an updated engineering bill of materials.
