For many engineers and managers in the petrochemical industry, management of change (MOC) is just an exten- sive and monotonous process with impeding paperwork. To be transparent, I had this mentality earlier in my career. I did not see the value of MOCs, but as my professional experience grew so did my appreciation. It became more apparent that an MOC brings many benefits, including improved safety and enhanced plant operations. In this discussion, my goal is to emphasize the importance of a well-executed MOC, provide tips and tricks for improving your MOC process, and share my journey of becoming an MOC champion!
