Gregg, Your email, attached at the end, brings up an excellent point regarding how compliance engineers track what was tested versus what we build. But 4 quality engineers and a 1.25M budget!!!!!!?????
I handle this by putting a table in my test plan which lists the part number and revision of major parts and assemblies in the actual test sample. One man, one sheet of paper, one day's work. Can I get paid 1.25M for that? Of course, I can't take all of the credit. I have to rely on our existing production system, which tracks Bills of Material and part revisions. This allowed me to create a snapshot of the test sample, as tested by only creating the list of assembly numbers and revisions. So, I'll only charge 0.5M. Come on! It's a bargain :-) Chris Maxwell | Design Engineer - Optical Division email chris.maxw...@nettest.com | dir +1 315 266 5128 | fax +1 315 797 8024 NetTest | 6 Rhoads Drive, Utica, NY 13502 | USA web www.nettest.com | tel +1 315 797 4449 | > -----Original Message----- > From: Gregg Kervill [SMTP:gr...@test4safety.com] > Sent: Wednesday, December 11, 2002 5:25 PM > To: emc-p...@majordomo.ieee.org > Subject: RE: Location of CE DoCs - electronic copies > > > Electronic copies versus electronic copies. > > As I see it the issues are > ONE----------------------------------------- > > If you scan the document and store them on CDROM then there is no problem > restoring them.
