OVERVIEW
MOC Manager provides a systematic method to manage the change process.
This includes regulatory and non-regulatory changes. The MOC process or
Workflow is user configurable allowing variations in the process for each type of
change. A default workflow is provided that can be edited to create new MOC
workflows. A workflow is constructed from building blocks or templates available in the
software. This includes action steps, decision (or gates) steps, impact steps, re-training
steps, checklist steps, etc.
A workflow can be any number of primary steps (or tasks) and sub-steps (or subtasks). Completion of all sub-tasks is required to allow closure of the primary
task. Each workflow can be edited separately to allow customization of a specific MOC
without compromising other similar type MOC.
MOC types are user configurable and can include any type of change. Creating
a new change type will inherit the workflow of the type Default. The workflow
steps, descriptions and action groups can be added, deleted or edited as
necessary. Each workflow step can be assigned an action group and person to perform
the requested task. This allows the change to be process by the correct groups and
people.
The MOC process is managed by a MOC lead person. A different lead can be
assigned for each type of MOC. The lead person will receive the notice email
that a new MOC in their jurisdiction has been submitted. The lead person will
review the request and will either reject or accept the request or re-assign to
a different lead person. If accepted, the lead person will assign working groups and
persons to process the MOC.
MOC requests are submitted with a form that contains basic project
information and a user configurable list of questions. These questions can be
different for each type of MOC. These questions are intended to provide
information on the requested change and involvement from other groups
such as environmental and safety. This information will assist the lead person in
determining the correct type of MOC to be selected.
Each MOC step has the ability to link external documents such as project
schedules, budget estimates, meeting notes, plans, etc. Each screen has an
upload document icon that can be used to upload and register these
documents.
MOC Manager utilizes an email system of notifications to push the process
from one step to the next as the work is completed. The email distribution is
user configurable through the MOC setup screen. The email triggers are user
configurable by licensed location.

Management of Change
Users assigned a step task are required to initiate their step within their grace
period or the task will be forwarded in accordance with their task forwarding
rules. Task forwarding is recommended to be setup for all users.
Access to MOC Manager and its screens is based on the logged-on user’s
permissions. User permissions are user configurable from a low setting of 0 to a
high setting of 10. A permission level of 0 will reject the user’s attempt to access
the software. A permission level of 10 is administrative level. All other levels are
intermediate levels ranging from view only to full edit access.
A configurable checklist step can be used to create a multiple question form for
the step task. This format can be used for design checklists and PSSR
checklists. The assigned person must answer all questions correctly or NA in order for
this step to close.
A connection to Asset Manager is used to provide information on assets
involved in a MOC. Assets can be categorized by process system or by
physical space. In the absence of asset information from Asset Manager,
asset fields in MOC Manager may be displayed as input text fields.
A connection to Training Manager is used to provide information on user
training as it relates to MOCs. Training programs and Computer Based
Training (CBT) sessions can be created in MOC for specific training
requirements for a MOC. Training status is tracked so that progress on
training can be assessed.
MOC manager is compatible with all browsers and is compliant with the current
standards of the W3C.

Setup MOC Group Member Permissions
Access to MOC Manager and its various screens is controlled by their permissions set
with this interface. To set a groups’ permission, enter the Setup Permissions screen
from either the Welcome Screen or the side menu Quick Links by selecting Groups,
Rights.
Select the group from the list on the left with its permission level from the list in the
center and click the Add>> button. To remove a groups’ permission, select the
group/permission from the list on the right and click the <<Remove button. Click the
save button to save your settings.
Figure 7: Setup MOC Group Member Permissions.
Users can be a member of any number of groups. Each group can be
assigned a different access level to the application and/or screens. The actual
permission level of a user will be based on their highest permission of the
groups they are a member of. This is known as an optimistic security profile.
It is recommended that the Users group contain all viewers of the application
and that this group be granted View permission (ACL =1). The default user
group is the MOC Team Member group. All users of the application should be
a member of this group and that this group be granted an ACL =2.
Administrators should have a normal user account in addition to their admin
account. This will minimize inadvertent edits of MOCs. The minimum ACL to
create a MOC is ACL 2.

Setup User Checklist Step Questions
User checklists are used when multiple questions or tasks are assigned to one person
such as design reviews and pre-start-up safety reviews. Any number of checklists can
be created. A library of over 100 sample checklists is available to customize. To create
a User Checklist, select Checklist, New/Edit from the side menu Quick Links or from the
top toolbar. Give the checklist an ID, a description and set its status to Active and click
the
button to save.

Once the checklist has been created, the questions can be added next.
Using checklist questions can significantly reduce the number of workflow steps
for a MOC. However, by combining questions into one form, the individual
progress of each question cannot be assessed. If the progress of a particular
question (task) is necessary, it has to be elevated to either a step or sub-step.

THE MOC PROCESS
MOC Manager follows an implementation sequence or workflow that is constructed with
building blocks of tasks, reviews, approvals, checks, etc. The workflow starts with a
request and end with a closure step. Workflows are completely user configurable and
are usually constructed to address specific types of changes. A typical workflow could
have the following steps.










The Request
Evaluation
Assign Tasks
Impact Analysis
Design Reviews
Implementation Plan
Plan Approval
Implementation
Pre-Start-up Safety Review (PSSR)
Closure
The workflow steps (also know as parent steps) can have multiple sub-steps or tasks
(also know as child steps). There is no limit on the number of steps or sub-steps that a
workflow can have.
Workflow Rules


The workflow must be processed in sequence from first to last step.
If a workflow step is to be skipped, it must be set to Not Applicable.
Workflow sub-steps of the same parent step can be processed at the same time.
If a workflow sub-step is to be skipped, it must be set to Not Applicable.
A parent step cannot be closed unless all its sub-steps are complete.
A parent step cannot be worked until all previous steps have been completed.
A MOC cannot be closed if any step is still In Progress.
A step cannot be worked until it is setup by the MOC Lead with target start and
end dates and all previous steps have been completed.
Clicking the green start button starts the step clock.
Clicking the red end button ends the step clock.
Only the Assigned To person, Forwarded To person, MOC Lead or an admin
level person can edit a step. All others will have Read Only permissions.
An administrative level person can edit all open MOCs. To avoid changing a
MOC inadvertently, admins should have a non-admin account for normal
uses.

THE MOC REQUEST
The MOC process starts with a new MOC Request. The request can be generated by
any user that has access to MOC Manager greater than ACL > 1. The initiator is
required to fill-in all fields noted with a “*”. All other fields are optional. A MOC ID Ref
Text field is included for creating a “Hook” to facilitate searches. Typical Hooks are TAR
ID, WO #, Incident ID, CorAct ID, Audit ID, Asset ID, etc. The MOC ID Reference Text
field is shown on all notice emails and reports. The MOC can also be tagged with a
Regulatory and Change Level properties. These are user configurable.

MOC TASKS ASSIGNMENTS
The Lead MOC Person for the MOC type requested will receive an email that a MOC
has been submitted. It is the lead person responsibility to review the request and
ascertain if the request was properly filled-out and the correct MOC type was selected.
If an incorrect MOC type was selected, the lead person can re-assign the MOC to the
correct type and lead at this time.
If properly filled-out, the lead person can allow the request to be evaluated for merit. To
do this, the lead must at least setup the Evaluation step and the Impact Analysis step
with target dates and an Assigned To person. If evaluated with merit, the process will be
pushed to the next step. If evaluated without merit, the MOC request can be cancelled
at this time. The MOC Summary and Task Assignment page also provides a single
location in which the MOC status, task status and actual task dates can be viewed. For
users with ACL < 8, this screen is non-editable.

MOC STANDARD WORKFLOW STEP
A standard workflow step is provided to handle basic workflow tasks. The standard
workflow step can be used as a parent step or it can be used as a child step. The
assigned person starts the MOC step by clicking the green button , adds their work
details and documents, and then ends the step by clicking the red button . This sets
timestamps to the start and end events and fires emails to the next workflow step.
The step has an identifier, in this case Evaluation and a task description. These are
derived from the workflow setup.
Figure 18: Standard workflow step used to track a MOC task.
The step has an input field for the task details and has an
icon for uploading an
external document if necessary. A document linked at the step level inserts it in the
MOC step folder. Clicking a document in the Step Document field, launches the
document viewer.
In the event the MOC team member fails to initiate the step within their grace period, the
task will be forwarding in accordance with the forwarding rules created in Set-up.
Step details can contain progress notes and other pertinent information. Emails can be
copied and pasted into this field. Emails can be created from within the application by
clicking on the email
icon.
Green arrows are provided to navigate within a workflow. The arrow direction indicates
the next screen to be viewed.

MOC APPROVAL STEP
The MOC Approval Step is used as a pass gate for the MOC. It can be used more than
once as the MOC approval levels vary. The MOC process can continue, terminate or
put on-hold by this step. The Approval Step is assigned to a users group in the workflow
configuration. This is a restricted access step to only the assigned user group members.
Figure 19: MOC Approval Step. The MOC is evaluated to determine if the MOC should proceed.
The assigned MOC approver initiates the step by clicking on the start button that
documents the start date. After reviewing the information completed to date, the
approver makes their decision and clicks on the stop button to stop the task clock.
Features such as task forwarding, document linking and emails are identical to the
standard step.
The approver selects their decision from the user configurable list of
options. In this example shown, the Approval step has not been
reached and the MOC Status is In Progress. The Approver uses the
Approval Detail field to enter their concerns and can also fire an email, if
necessary.
Clicking the exit button
returns to the task assignment screen.

The MOC Design Review step is used to provide assurances that the design
requirements of the MOC are satisfied. A design review step is normally created as a
series of questions with Yes/No/NA radio button type answers. The questions are
completely user configurable. There is no limit of the number of design review checklist
that can be created or the number of checklist questions.
This step can also import checklist questions from an outside source and imported via
the document link
.

MOC PLAN APPROVAL
The plan approval step is an example of the pass gate and provides an opportunity for
management to authorize the expenditure of capital and resources to proceed with the
change. Only the assigned approver can activate and edit the approval pane. However,
any member of the Approvers Group can be assigned this task, if necessary.
The Approval step can be used more than once in a MOC. As an example, it can be
used as gates throughout the workflow for controlling task flow.

MOC IMPLEMENTATION
The implementation plan is the step where the actual work to complete the change is
tracked. Generally, this step will involve many people and could involve other project
tracking mechanisms such as Microsoft Project. External documents supporting this
step should be referenced in this step. Sub-tasks can be added to formulate a more
complex tracking system.

MOC PSSR STEP
The MOC PSSR step is used to verify that the MOC has been completed, modifications
performed and verified ready for start-up. The PSSR Step is normally configured with a
Standard Step as the parent step and one or more user configurable checklist substeps. The sub-steps are designed for multiple reviewing groups such as Operations,
Maintenance, Training, etc. The parent step manager ensures that all sub-step tasks
are complete. If a PHA is necessary, the step manager ensures that this is performed
and documented with all risk scenarios evaluated and resolved prior to start-up. This
may involve a corrective action processor such as CorAct Manager. If this MOC is
dependent upon other MOCs, these other MOCs can be embedded in this step.
There are several building blocks that can be assembled to perform this quality
verification. Examples are shown below:

MOC Release Sub-Step with Approval Section
A release building block template can be used as a PSSR Sub-Step Release form. The
Step Release form works like a Step Approval form except that it does not change the
overall MOC status.
The effort required to acquire all the releases from the impacted departments should not
be underestimated and allowances should be made for communicating the change to
the various managers involved.

MOC CLOSURE
MOC closure is the final step in the MOC process. The assigned task manager verifies
that all work on the MOC including construction activities is completed. When closed, no
further modification to the MOC record is allowed. The MOC status is Closed and the
data is archived.
An Approval Step can be used as the closure step. This will set the final ”Gate” for the
MOC to close.
