Management of change evaluation

Recommendations should undergo a management of change evaluation to identify and consider the impact and risks associated with any changes. It is imperative that the management of change evaluation he completed before implementing recommendations. 

Some type of Management of Change evaluation. Such an evaluation should be performed if someone is considering an adjustment of alarm or shutdown setpoint. 

All findings from hazards analyses, Management of Change evaluations, and other types of review are closed out properly. 

Conduct thorough evaluation of process modification using management of change review procedure... 

Maintaining flame arrester reliahility is critical to snccessfnl operation. Modifications to the system which may change gas composition shonld he care-fnlly evaluated to ensnre that the mixture with the lowest MESG is still within flame arrester certification. Other management of change issues include piping modificadons, increased or decreased pressures, and the introdnc-tion of corrosive, condensahle, or odier potentially harmfnl materials. 

Member companies are required to have programs to manage reactive hazards that address, at a minimum, hazard identification, hazard evaluation, management of change, inherently safer design, and adequate procedures and training.

Is a formal documented system in place that assures each recommendation is evaluated through the management of change program before being implemented ... 

All changes as defined by the Guidelines for Management of Change are appropriately evaluated for Reactive Chemicals potential. 

Evaluates compliance of the operation with this standard as well as compliance with the Management of Change Guideline as it relates to reactive chemicals. 

Therefore, if a leak-detection system has been installed to warn of releases of toxic or flammable materials from a plant, the implementation of a process safety management system should include the detection system as part of the process (CCPS 1989 CCPS 1988). In this manner the leak-detection system will be subject to the facility s management-of-change procedures, and changes to the leak-detection system, will be carefully evaluated before being implemented.
