Emergency MOC

There may be times when it is necessary to make a change in an emergency situation. VisiumKMS allows you to document this change, overriding the need for the Unit Supervisor acceptance.

To create an Emergency MOC:

  1. Click on Create New under the Record Options
  2. Enter the Location by clicking on the field and selecting a location from the hierarchy. The location pick list can expand and collapse with child (sub) locations under the parent (main) location. The location choices will be only the locations which the user has roles and tokens associated to the tracker Modules.
  3. Select eMOC as the Type.
  4. The questions displayed on the Emergency MOC window represents the requirements of an Emergency MOC based on the OSHA PSM standard and can be configured in KMS. To add the configurable questions, please contact your Account Manager or Implementation Consultant. The questions must be answer in a manner that would justify an Emergency MOC being initiated.
  5. After you answer the questions, Click OK
  6. The user will select a source using the drop down. If an EMOC was selected as a type then the system will automatically assign the source as 'Emergency' and it cannot be modified.
  7. Click Save.

Once the user saves the emergency MOC, Proposal Details can be entered.

Other new fields will include eMOC Approvers and Comments. This is a person that can give the permission to proceed for the eMOC. Their comments will need to be captured in the Comments field. Emergency Type defines the type of Emergency that justifies creating an Emergency MOC some examples are Personal Injury, Environmental Impact, etc. Click on Save located under Record Options.

After the saving of the approvers for the Emergency MOC, it is treated as any other MOC. The information in the Emergency MOC can be accessed at any time, by clicking Details - Emergency MOC.

The initial "Submit for Approval" is bypassed for Emergency MOCs. Users with 'Initiator' token can create an Emergency MOC.
