ECO Requests
All projects experience changes through the design process. The Whole Hog Engineering Change Order is a way for our customers to indicate any additional work identified during the scope of an existing project. Submitting an ECO with Whole Hog is simply a way to formally acknowledge that additional deliverables needs to be added to the project.

Contract Acceptance
To initiate work on your project, Whole Hog requires an acceptance of your contract either as a signed copy of the contract, or through our online acceptance form. Either method will initiate work as outlined in the quote, and will also provide a 'launch' point from which to base the schedule for contract deliverables.

Whole Hog Value Add
A Value Add method is used by Whole Hog to help steer the success of each development effort. The Whole Hog Value Add form allows new design approaches to be identified, different fabrication methods made available, or other adjustments to project elements to be collected and reviewed by the management team. Value Add items approved by the customer can be implemented in a predictable and orderly manner.
