Oil, Gas & Mining Change Control Software Systems

MasterControl Offers Oil, Gas & Mining Change Control Software Systems to Automate Change Control Procedures to Comply with ISO 9000 and ISO 14000 Quality Control Requirements

In the ISO environment, the concept of change control is closely interweaved with conformance. ISO-certified oil and gas companies and contractors are expected to establish change control procedures as a way of improving overall product quality. ISO 9000 requires management to examine all changes that might affect the quality system and ISO 9000 can be achieved with the help of MasterCOntrol's oil, gas and mining change control systems. ISO 14000 requires correction of nonconformities, including modification of documents, and at the same time maintaining procedures to control documents.

How can MasterControl Oil, Gas and Mining Change Control Software Benefit You?

MasterControl's oil, gas and mining change control software is designed to help oil and gas companies automate and effectively manage every step of the change control process, from submission through actual implementation, verification, and close of project.

Compliant to Oil, Gas & Mining Change Control Systems.

Sustained Compliance: MasterControl believes that compliance is a state, not an event. MasterControl's oil, gas and mining change control system is designed not only to help oil and gas companies attain ISO certification, but to sustain it year after year by automating and enforcing change control processes.

• Increased Efficiency Through Automation: MasterControl software automates all tasks pertaining to change control, including notification, follow-up, and escalation of overdue assignments. Automation helps simplify the compliance environment, making it easier to stay compliant.

• Best-Practice Form: A pre-configured, multi-page form in the oil, gas and mining change control software helps collect and track data every step of the way in the change control process: submission, evaluation, approval/ rejection, implementation, verification, and close of project.

• Analytics and Reporting: MasterControl's advanced analytics and reporting capability increases management oversight. It provides the a ability to dynamically capture, trend, and link data needed to solve problems and improve processes. Data can be summarized in multiple levels, so change orders can be reported by product, department, root cause, etc.

• Revision Control: While the current document is still available to the intended audience, authorized users may check-out and collaborate with others to make revisions to draft documents within the oil, gas and mining change control software. Upon completion, the system's lifecycle management functionality automatically sends the updated copy through an approval route, impacted users are trained on changes, and the newly approved version bumps the obsolete document to archive status where retention rules come into effect.

Connected Oil, Gas and Mining Change Control Systems

Integrated Quality Management: MasterControl connects the change control process with other quality processes for a holistic approach to quality management.

• Easy Access: MasterControl's oil, gas and mining change control system is web-based so it can connect employees, suppliers, contractors, consultants, and others involved in the change control process regardless of location.

• Form-to-Form Launching: A change submission form can be launched directly from another form, such as a corrective/preventive action (CAPA) form. Pertinent information from the CAPA form will be automatically entered into the change submission, reducing data entry. Links are maintained so users can review a completed process and see what triggered the change.

• Dependent Routing: Completion of a task can be made dependent on another task to give managers more control of the workflow and reduce cycle time by prompting users immediately to their next task. An innovative dependency tree illustrates relationships between dependent processes in the oil, gas and mining change control system.

• Electronic sign-offs: With MasterControl's oil, gas and mining change control systems, you can get approval from different people without the legwork. Documents can be signed and approved electronically. Signature manifestation - name, date, time, and meaning of electronic signature - can be appended automatically to each document.

Complete Oil, Gas and Mining Change Control Software

Enterprise-wide Product Application: MasterControl can handle every department's forms and documents-based processes, making it an ideal enterprise-wide solution.

• Integrates with Other Applications: MasterControl can integrate with other applications like ERP, LIMS, accounting, and human resources applications to accommodate departmental needs.

• Easy to Search: A standardized Google-like search window is available in the oil, gas and mining change control softwarethroughout the application, which means all authorized users throughout the organization can search and retrieve change control-related tasks and documents.

• Easy to Find: MasterControl's Organizer, similar to Windows Explorer, is an easy-to-use tool that helps users find and access documents quickly. Every department can maintain its own Organizers and documents can be stored in multiple Organizers. System administrators can control and automatically update the documents through a dynamic link in the InfoCard available within the oil, gas and mining change control software.

• Automation of Forms-Based Processes: Any forms-based process unique to a department (i.e., application forms for HR, customer satisfaction survey forms for Customer Service Department) can be automated. A department can keep the look and function of existing forms or create entirely new ones from the oil, gas and mining change control software.
