Management of Change (MOC) Software
Digitizing Change Management to Ensure Safety and Compliance
Sparrow’s Management of Change (MOC) Software, built on IndustryOS™ Lite, aligns with OSHA PSM standards and CCPS RBPS principles to provide a systematic and comprehensive approach for managing changes. This software ensures that every change in processes, equipment, or personnel is evaluated for safety, operational, and regulatory impacts before implementation. With built-in risk assessment, approval workflows, and real-time tracking, it enhances compliance, minimizes risks, and streamlines change management.
Sparrow's MOC Software in line with OSHA, EPA and CCPS
Controlled, risk-proof, and impact-optimized, seamless and compliance-driven MOC software
Automated Change Workflow
Sparrow's MOC software ensures rule-based approval process and ensures every change follows a standardized path
Automated Change Workflow
Our Software Solutions provide automated routing for risk assessment and approvals based on predefined path. We also provide Timestamps for accountability tracking
Risk Assessment & Impact Analysis
Our software has built-in risk evaluation tools like HAOP, FEMA and LOPA to access safety and environmental impact
Risk Assessment & Impact Analysis
We have built in dependency mapping to analyze how the changes affect other processes or compliance. We also help you prioritize high-impact changes and prevent disruptions.
Corrective Action & Compliance Management
We implement automated action tracking to ensure corrective and preventive measures (CAPA) are implemented before approval.
Corrective Action & Compliance Management
Our software has regulatory alignment with OSHA, EPA, aa well as ISO 45001. We also have audit ready documentation with historical logs for compliance reporting
Integration with Digital Twin
We have the capability to build the structure of MOC around a digital twin and stimulate changes to predict real-world impact
Integration with Digital Twin
Sparow has the infrastructure that enables software modules like MOC to integrate with CMMS and ERP. It also provides analytics built on top of Digital Twin for operational planning
Key Principles of MOC as per CCPS and OSHA
-
Systematic Change Evaluation Assess all proposed changes systematically to identify potential risks. Ensure evaluations cover process safety, operational efficiency, and environmental impacts.
-
Risk-Based Decision-Making Use tools like HIRA and PHA to assess the impact of proposed changes. Prioritize actions based on the level of risk associated with the change.
-
Documentation and Communication: Maintain detailed records of each change, including the rationale, risk assessment, and approvals.
Ensure effective communication of changes to all affected personnel.
-
Pre-Implementation Readiness Verify that training, documentation, and safety measures are updated before executing the change.
-
Post-Implementation Review Conduct a follow-up review to validate the success of the change and address any residual risks.
Key Features of MOC Software
- Digitally manage all MOC requests, approvals, and associated documentation.
- Ensure traceability with a detailed audit trail for every change.
- Link MOC requests to Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA) tools.
- Evaluate changes for their impact on process safety, environment, and operations.
- Configure multi-level approval workflows based on the complexity and risk of changes.
- Enable automated notifications and escalations to prevent delays.
- Incorporate PSSR checklists to verify that all safety measures are in place before implementing changes.
- Ensure compliance with OSHA’s PSM requirements for operational readiness.
- Automatically trigger updates to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and training programs to reflect approved changes.
- Ensure employees and contractors are trained on updated procedures before execution.
- Use dynamic risk matrices to categorize and prioritize changes based on their potential impact.
- Integrate findings with Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA) to address identified risks.
- Monitor MOC progress with live dashboards, including approval status, pending tasks, and risk trends.
- Generate visual insights to optimize change management processes.

How the MOC Process Aligns with CCPS and OSHA Standards?
- A change request is raised, detailing the nature, scope, and purpose of the change.
- Types of changes include modifications to equipment, processes, personnel, or organizational structure.
- Perform a structured risk analysis using PHA, HAZOP, or What-If methodologies.
- Identify potential hazards and implement appropriate control measures.
- Changes are reviewed and approved through a predefined, multi-level hierarchy.
- Approvals ensure that all risks are mitigated and compliance requirements are met.
- Conduct a PSSR to verify that safety measures, training, and documentation are in place.
- Ensure all affected personnel are informed and trained on the changes.
- Execute the approved change under controlled conditions.
- Monitor implementation to ensure adherence to safety protocols.
- Validate the success of the change and address any residual risks.
- Update process documentation, SOPs, and training records accordingly.
- Maintain a complete record of the MOC process, including evaluations, approvals, and reviews.
- Use these records for compliance audits and continuous improvement.
