Abstract: A method for executing a six box process for implementing an engineering change using a web-base system. The method includes utilizing a process sequence template to develop an engineering change plan by mapping a plurality of interactions between a plurality of organizations impacted by the engineering change plan Additionally, the method include utilizing a tip sheets/design aids tool to review the engineering change plan by educating design organizations on at least one functional requirement that needs to be satisfied to generate a completed engineering change record (ECR). Furthermore, the method includes utilizing a system survey/metrics tool to understand errors that occur during a lifecycle of the six box process by gathering discrete engineering change error information, data resulting from the engineering change, and abstract perceptions of the engineering change throughout the lifecycle of the six box process.
