Common use of Engineering Change Orders Clause in Contracts

Engineering Change Orders. Engineering changes suggested by KMC in the ordinary course of production shall be distinguished from the redesign work described in subsections (a) through (e), above. The manufacturing quality plan to be prepared by KMC and approved by Gen-Probe will establish a process for prompt evaluation and implementation of engineering changes in the course of production through means of Engineering Change Orders ("ECOs"). All ECOs must be approved by Gen-Probe in writing. It is the intent of the parties that the ECO process be one which permits expedited response to the circumstances giving rise to the ECO. Gen-Probe recognizes that the ECO process may require changes in nonrecurring engineering charges, production schedules and/or material costs and the Transfer Price of the Instrument.
