Change Management
A Holistic Approach
It might sound familiar yet somewhat different. ECM is not a new term, yet today it is more recognized as Engineering Change Management. And why is that, actually?
At BoostPLM, we focus on embracing your entire enterprise, not just isolated departments. We extend our collaboration beyond just engineering, aiming for comprehensive enterprise integration. By implementing our ECM, you are not just installing software; you are integrating a holistic system that ensures all your subsystems work in harmony, enhancing overall efficiency and reducing operational silos.

Many companies experience well-known pains and challenges because their systems are not scaled or designed for the complexity and scope of their data and processes. Without adaptive, integrated systems, effective collaboration and seamless operations are difficult, often causing delays and increased costs. Our Enterprise Change Management (ECM-GO) system is meticulously designed to bridge this gap, streamlining processes to ensure smooth and efficient business operations.
Optimize and Advance your ECM processes by focusing on six elements
At BoostPLM, we are experienced in creating meaningful and effektive ECM processes with our clients.
Our experience has taught us six key elements to focus on.
Collaboration
Cross-functional collaboration is needed both when requesting, analysing, planning and executing changes. The handling of a change should include involvement of all relevant stakeholders across the business and value chain.
Information
When handling changes, it is crucial to base decisions on correct and relevant information.
This information is often placed across multiple systems and business areas but needs to be gathered to create value in the ECM process.
Impact
An essential part of a meaningful ECM process is a deep and thoruogh understanding of the impact that each change has on various parts of your value chain. This includes for instance stock and costs related to the execution of a change.
Change Manager
Manufacturing companies quickly gather multiple change requests, and managing these by bundling or splitting them is essential for an effective handling of changes.
Plan
It is highly beneficial to see each change as a project of it’s own. This means that we need to plan ahead for each change including which departments should execute which tasks and what is the critical path. This helps ensure planned and short Time-to-Market.
Integrations
To achieve the optimal ECM process it is essential that the process is integrated with other systems and solution used throughout the business. For instance, your PLM and ERP system holds important information and data relevant for executing a change, and this should be included in the change handling flow.
