FoCul adds Management of Change for Process Safety to the Delivery Toolkit Suite 

FoCul has added a Management of Change for Process Safety ( MOC ) module to the FoCul Delivery Toolkit Suite. This browser based system is currently under development and will be deployed to manage change at a large UK CHP power plant in Q3.

The MOC application will significantly improve the efficiency and control with which changes can be managed. In developing the application we have incorporated many of the ideas in the Guidelines for the Management of Change for Process Safety from the Centre For Chemical Process Safety CCPS.

The FoCul Delivery Toolkit Suite is FoCul's suite of shrink wrapped solutions. Each module has been developed from extensive experience gained on real projects and is available on a licensed or monthly subscription basis.
