Engineering Orders and Validation
A single workflow for every request — routed, tracked, validated and closed on time.
CARET Engineering replaces Excel, shared email, and the follow-up call with a single platform to manage every engineering order on the floor — ECRs, ECNs, deviations, tooling requests, sample builds and process changes. Each order has clear ownership, defined validation steps, target dates and a complete audit trail. Order types, fields, approval routing and reports are fully configurable per plant and per discipline — the workflow adapts to how your engineering team already operates. Simple, effective, and built for how change really happens on a manufacturing floor.
Core Capabilities
Configurable Order Types
Engineering Change Requests, Notices, Deviations, Tooling, NPI builds, Process Changes — each type with its own fields, attachments and required approvers. Define the order the way your discipline already works.
Clear Ownership and Routing
Each order has a single owner and a defined validator sequence. The platform routes automatically by type, plant and severity — no more hallway reminders or requests lost in email.
Target Dates and SLA Tracking
Each workflow step has its own target date. Overdue orders appear in real time; aged items escalate by configurable rules so corporate sees risk before it becomes a missed commitment.
Multi-Level Validation Trail
Each validator signs with timestamp, comments and attached evidence. The order cannot close until all required validations are complete. The record is audit-ready by design.
Custom Reports and Dashboards
Open orders by owner, by type, by aging bucket. Throughput and cycle-time analytics by discipline. Filterable, exportable and configurable — corporate gets the view it asks for without an IT ticket.
