  Why is Management Of Change (MOC) so poorly executed

Management of Change (MOC) under OSHA PSM is often poorly executed not due to lack of knowledge, but because it conflicts with operational realities. Production pressure, unclear definitions of change, weak field ownership, and procedural focus reduce effectiveness. Temporary and digital changes bypass controls, cumulative risk goes untracked, and approvals lack rigor. Without aligned incentives, clear boundaries, and post-implementation verification, MOC becomes a formality rather than a true risk control.

Data collection is an RBI project bottleneck, often taking a very significant percentage of total effort due to manual interpretation of old, varied engineering documents. AOC developed AI-driven tooling to automatically extract, classify, and normalize this data, achieving a very high accuracy and significantly streamlining the process for faster, more reliable RBI implementation.
