Management of Change
Digital MoC Platform
Control operational changes with confidence. Our MoC platform ensures systematic evaluation, approval, and implementation of technical and organizational changes while maintaining safety and compliance.
Why Management of Change Matters
The Critical Role of MoC
Management of Change (MoC) is a systematic approach to dealing with organizational and technical changes in a controlled manner. Studies show that up to 80% of industrial incidents occur during or after changes to equipment, processes, or procedures.
Effective MoC processes ensure that changes are properly reviewed, risks are assessed, affected personnel are trained, and documentation is updated before implementation. This systematic approach prevents incidents, maintains regulatory compliance, and ensures operational continuity.

MoC Frequently Asked Questions
What changes require MoC review?
Any change that could impact safety, health, environment, or operations should go through MoC. This includes equipment modifications, process parameter changes, procedural updates, organizational changes, and temporary modifications. Even seemingly minor changes can have significant impacts, so when in doubt, use the MoC process.
How does digital MoC improve the process?
Digital MoC eliminates paper-based delays, provides real-time visibility, ensures nothing falls through the cracks, and creates a complete audit trail. Automated workflows route changes to the right reviewers, risk assessment tools ensure thorough evaluation, and dashboards provide management oversight. This typically reduces approval times by 50-70% while improving quality.
What are the key stages of MoC?
The MoC process typically includes: 1) Initiation and classification, 2) Technical review and risk assessment, 3) Multi-disciplinary review (operations, maintenance, safety, engineering), 4) Management approval based on risk level, 5) Pre-implementation verification (training, documentation updates), 6) Implementation with monitoring, and 7) Post-implementation review and closure.
How do we ensure MoC compliance?
Effective MoC compliance requires clear policies defining what changes require review, training for all personnel on when and how to use MoC, regular audits to verify compliance, and a culture that values following the process. Our platform enforces compliance through mandatory fields, approval gates, and comprehensive reporting that makes bypassing the system virtually impossible.
What about emergency changes?
Emergency changes that are necessary to protect personnel or prevent environmental damage can proceed with expedited approval. However, they still require documentation and review. Our platform includes emergency MoC workflows that allow rapid approval while maintaining documentation requirements. These changes are flagged for detailed post-implementation review to ensure all aspects are properly addressed.
