Frequently Asked Questions About Management of Change Programs and Software
What is Management of Change (MOC)?
MOC is a structured process for proactively identifying, assessing and managing changes within an organization.
Why is MOC Important?
An effective management of change program identifies and controls safety and operational risks before changes occur. This reduces the risk of injuries, environmental incidents, quality issues, operational inefficiency, regulatory non-compliance, and much more. Please see our PSM Management of Change Compliance blog article to learn more about the importance of MOC process.
What Regulations and Standards Require an MOC Program?
How Does MOC Software Improve Regulatory Compliance?
Consistent and accurate regulatory compliance can be one of the most daunting challenges that organizations and companies face, and our MOC software is designed to make regulatory compliance easy! Compliance with rules, regulations, requirements, zoning, permits, recordkeeping, safety training and other compliance requirements can be tracked with our MOC software solution. You can rest easy knowing that you're in compliance with OSHA, ISO, PSM, EPA, DOT, and all of the other entities that regulate your industry.
What Types of Changes Should Be Managed Through an MOC Process?
Any change that could impact health and safety, regulatory compliance, or quality should go through a structured review process prior to being implemented. Examples include changes to:
Process chemicals
Technology
Procedures
Equipment
Facilities
Management personnel
Staffing changes (for example if staffing levels decrease such that adherence to existing procedures is not possible or changes in staffing experience could impact safety/performance)
Budgets (for example if budget levels decrease such that adherence to existing procedures is not possible)
Reviewers spend less time completing their reviews
Employees are more likely to embrace snd use your MOC process
How Does MOC Software Improve Collaboration?

Is Ecesis Difficult to Implement?
Many of our clients come to us having never used MOC software, and they're amazed at how easy it is to transition away from spreadsheets and calendars that weren't quite doing the trick. Our MOC software makes it simple to track changes across your organization, in a consistent manner, with a "paper trail." Yet, there is no paper, which means that change processes can be managed from anywhere, at anytime.
Will Your MOC Software Make Our Approval Process Faster?
Yes! Our entire MOC Software Solution has been designed to improve operational efficiency. A few features that will make your MOC Program more efficient include:
Automated notifications
Verification that required information is completed prior to submittal
Conditional questions to keep forms as short as possible
Email reminders to ensure reviews and action items are not forgotten.
Are Your MOC Forms Customizable?
Yes, our management of change solution makes it easy to customize your MOC forms and workflows to meet your current and future needs.
Does You Software Manage Temporary MOCs?
Yes, temporary change requests are assigned an expiration date. Users are notified by email as this due date approaches and then may request an extension.
Does Your MOC Software Program Allow Me to Add or Subtract Review Requirements Based Risk?
Yes, MOC forms may include risk assessment questions that display conditional questions, require uploading of documents, create action items, and/or turn on additional review requirements.
What is an MOC Risk Assessment?
An MOC Risk Assessment is a process used to identify and evaluate the potential consequences of a change to determine their severity and likelihood of occurence. Changes that have a high severity and a high likelihood of occuring, present a high risk and the MOC process needs to be more rigorous in order to ensure adequate controls are put in place so as not to increase the risk of injuries, down-time, environmental degradation, etc.
What Considerations Must Be Included in An MOC Process?
Considerations vary in management of change processes, but as an example, the OSHA PSM Standard requires consideration of the following prior to implementing a change:
The technical basis for the proposed change
Impact of change on safety and health
Modifications to operating procedures
Necessary time period for the change
Authorization requirements for the proposed change
Any industry can benefit from implementing a standardized process for managing change. A few examples of industries that commonly use MOC software include:
What Should I Look For In an MOC Software Solution?
Prior to selecting an MOC solution, we recommend that you evaluate at least three options from MOC software vendors. Items you should consider during this review include:
How Do Manufacturer's Use Management of Change Software?
Our MOC software is a top choice for manufacturers who have complicated processes or are within a highly-regulated industry. The MOC software can be integrated with SSO (Single-Sign-On) and SAP (Systems Applications and Products) software, as well as other software solutions. Changes to workflows, quality assurance protocols, vendors, equipment, personnel, and much more can be tracked using our Management of Change software.
How Can I Justify Implementing an MOC Program?
MOC programs quickly pay for themselves. As an example, operations personnel could bring a new piece of equipment on-site without an air permit. This might result in a violation of the Clean Air Act, which could cost your company $46,192 per day. As another example, warehouse personnel could purchase a new forklift and if you fail to provide additional training on this forklift, injuries and costly OSHA violations could occur.
