The related Engineering Change(EC) activity is to be required at the beginning stage of Automobile Products Developing, or within the Product Life Cycle due to the factors of Product Changes, Process Changes, Material Specification Changes, or the demand of Customers; the major reasons of the EC is on Product Function Changes or added consideration of Product Safety, Process Changes to increase Productivities or better Quality Rating, finding Replaced Materials for Cost Saving or its Specification to meet Environment Regulation as well as coping with the demand of Customers or Marketing.
In order to improving Product Quality, lowering Production Cost, satisfaction with the demand of Marketing and Customers, and maintaining the Competitive Advantage, Enterprises will suggest and implement Engineering Change Activity; In principal, the Frequency of EC is to occur as less as possible, it can sustain the Product Quality in its original design requirement also lower developing cost. But, if EC occurred frequently, the over-lapping issues of EC version will result in difficulty on material management and assembly with incorrect parts, which ultimately cause Quality Problems.
Based on Information Management and Strategy Development point of view, this thesis provides a framework of concept for Engineering Change Information Management (ECIM) then build up a model of ECIM; uniting the Enterprises’『Intranet』 through 『Internet』; by means of integrating ECIM Systems among the members of Supply Chain Suppliers, establishing a mechanism of correlation of ECIM, then monitoring and controlling it immediately; it’s expected to manage and monitor the EC activity among the members of Supply Chain Suppliers as well as to eliminate the problems which could derivatived from EC.
The study of this thesis is adopted from 『Business Visiting Methodology』, by means of collecting the related data from 5 representative Companies, then sorting and analysing the real practices of relative EC; to review and compare the discrepancy of the collected information with the Proposed intergrated Collaboration of 「ECIM model」、「Management Framework」and 「Informatiom Flowchart」among the Enterprises, the appropriate rectification will be given afterward.
