Home/ Product/ Management of Change

Every change, controlled.

A 6-step workflow that catches every process, equipment, procedure or organisational change before it goes live — with auto-classification, approval routing by severity, emergency fast-track, and a full audit trail you can hand to a regulator.

Why MoC matters

Most safety incidents trace back to an undocumented change.

A pipe rerouted "temporarily." A control bypassed for one shift. A new chemical added to an existing process. Without a structured Management of Change workflow, every one of these decisions is invisible to auditors — and to the next shift. ENSURE makes the change itself an auditable artefact.

Auto-classification from a 5-question triage

Answer five yes/no questions about new hazards, safety-critical controls, environmental permits, training, and emergency response — the system suggests Minor, Significant or Major, with override and justification.

  • Like-for-like exemption closes the MoC in one step
  • Override the suggestion only with a written justification
  • Classification drives the rest of the workflow
Step 2 · Classification
Introduces new hazards? YES
Bypass safety control? YES
Env permit impact? NO
New training needed? YES
Emergency response? NO
Suggested classification
SIGNIFICANT 3 yes · 2 no

Approval routing that scales with severity

Minor changes need one approver. Significant changes need HSE plus the department head. Major changes need a full panel. The slots auto-build from the classification — no manual workflow design.

  • Approve, Conditional, or Reject — with conditions textarea
  • Status auto-advances when every slot has decided
  • Any Reject moves the MoC to Rejected with the reason logged

Emergency fast-track — 2 fields, 24 hours

When a change must happen immediately to prevent harm or major loss, capture it in two fields: what's changing and who verbally approved. The system auto-creates a 24-hour documentation action and flags the record with an EMERGENCY badge until you complete the full 6-step workflow.

Temporary changes don't get forgotten

Mark a change as Temporary and the expiry date becomes mandatory. Seven days before expiry an amber banner appears on the record. At expiry you choose: Revert, Extend (re-triggers approval), or Convert to Permanent (re-triggers approval).

One record, many entry points.

A MoC isn't a silo. It picks up where an incident's interim controls leave off, or where an audit finding flagged a process gap. After implementation, lessons feed into CAPA or the risk register. The trail is preserved.

Every MoC ENSURE captures becomes part of the audit trail. Book a 30-minute demo — we'll run it on a change you're scoping.
