Engineering Release Management – work-flow-based approval and communication for managing engineering releases. The Engi-neering model fully interfaces with Project Management to budget, control and authorise expenses for engineering develop-ment and to enforce time constraints for activities in the work break down structure (WBS). Project MRP- The project WBS can be mapped into the engineering hardware structure, thus enabling MRP to suggest the applicable element in the project WBS when planned replenishments are created for purchasing and manufacturing activities at all levels in the BOM. Project pegging is retained at all levels in the Supply chain and special requirements and priorities are exposed throughout the process.
