## What is management of change (MOC) software?

Management of change software ensures every operational or technical change on a
vessel or ashore is assessed, reviewed and approved through a controlled workflow
before it is made — so change strengthens operations instead of introducing risk.
In NOZZLE this is the MOC capability within
[HSEQ](/solutions/ship-health-safety-environment-quality/).

NOZZLE runs each modification from initial request to final approval in one
system, with a simple or detailed risk assessment depending on the change, impact
tracking across affected departments, vessels and processes, and a unified office
and vessel view. Tasks are assigned and monitored to completion, notifications keep
affected parties informed, and completed MOCs are archived for audits and future
reference.

Management of change works alongside
[risk assessment](/solutions/maritime-risk-assessment-software/),
[incident reporting](/solutions/marine-incident-reporting-software/) and the
[SMS revision recommendation](/solutions/sms-revision-recommendation-software/)
workflow. Book a [demo](/request-demo/) to see MOC across your fleet.
