I am doing the changes to the DB as I make changes to the app.

The problem is how to update the database on the client site without me. Our QA department will be publishing the changes to the client site, including the database changes.

You mentioned copying the DBC. If I create a scipt to alter the table, then if I change the view, can I just copy the DBC over to the client site?
