Engineering Change Order
Explanation:
What is an ECO (Engineering Change Order)?
The ECO is not the software. The ECO system is an agreement among people; a cooperative activity that provides a review process and traceability to changes in products' design and specifications.

Why use ECO's?
An ECO system ensures that changes to design documents are made deliberately rather than casually.
An ECO system typically incorporates a review process by other members of technical staff. This helps catch mistakes prior to making the new specifications "public."
The process builds a Revision History which tracks design changes over the life of a product. This can be useful for technical, business or legal issues which may arise in the future.
Controlling and documenting changes to a product is usually necessary to comply with certifying and listing agency requirements (ISO-900x, FDA, FM, UL, TUV, CSA, etc.). Document Control that includes an ECO system generally satisfies this requirement.
