Significance and Use
This practice establishes a standard equipment control methodology to aid in requirements determination and communication with the end goal of the promulgation of safe, secure, cost effective, and risk appropriate control and tracking methodologies.
The ECCs provide standard classes for equipment based on control and tracking requirements for the equipment.
The ECLs provide standard names and definitions for existing equipment control practices.
The ECM relates the equipment control classes to the equipment control levels, providing a baseline for determination of safe, secure, risk appropriate, and cost effective control and tracking of various classes of equipment.
This practice encourages an inclusive understanding and communication of the control and tracking of equipment and enables meaningful discussion between parties with interest in the equipment.
This practice is intended to foster and enable additional standard practices related to or based on these terms and concepts.
