About this engineering change request spreadsheet template

This engineering change request template gives engineering and project teams a structured system for logging, reviewing, and tracking change requests across four interconnected sheets. The ECR Register captures every request with fields for title, system, requester, change type, reason, estimated and actual costs, planned and actual days, cost and schedule variance, risk level, approval status, implementation stage, and owner assignment.

The Review Queue helps teams prioritize and act on pending requests with decision and action tracking, while the Risk Dashboard provides an at-a-glance summary of open requests grouped by risk level with average cost and schedule variance metrics. The Change Guide sheet documents the full change control workflow from submission through verification, covering cost variance, schedule variance, and critical risk gates.

Every sheet is fully editable in WPS Office, Microsoft Excel, or Google Sheets. Replace the sample ECR entries, adjust column formulas, and adapt the workflow rules to match your organization's engineering change management process.
