Benefits
Regulatory and Best Practice Compliance
If you are operating a regulated asset (i.e., DOT/PHMSA), you must be audit-ready with accurate, fast, and concise information.
MaCRoM was designed with these requirements at the forefront. For U.S. pipeline operators, MaCRoM adheres to API 1168 recommendations, thus helping you comply with PHMSA regulations in the following areas:
- Separation of responsibilities through a role-based security architecture
- Implement shift turnover best practices
- Provide controllers with adequate and timely information through electronic records
- Facilitate the analysis of controller fatigue and workload
- Ensure proper management of changes with adequate documentation and tracking
- Manage recurring tasks and training programs
Even if your assets are not regulated, MaCRoM will help you implement well-established and proven best practices for Control Room Management in a systematic and auditable manner.
In case of an incident, MaCRoM’s centralized records will allow you to quickly reconstruct and analyze the event and implement improvements to avoid a repeat of such incidents in the future.
RECORD AND DOCUMENTATION CONSOLIDATION
Dealing with multiple applications to manage your control room activity records and documentation is inefficient and often lacks auditability and traceability. It also leads to inconsistent or orphan records.
With MaCRoM, controllers can focus on operating the asset with SCADA and manage everything else with MaCRoM. MaCRoM allows the consolidation of all Control Room Management activities, records, and documents in a single system, thus maintaining consistency, facilitating training, and, most importantly, making every record auditable and traceable.

IMPROVE AND PROMOTE COLLABORATION
Having MaCRoM as a centralized repository for records, documents, or activities involving multiple departments facilitates communication and collaboration between such departments.
Through attachments, comments, tags, notifications, and other features common across all MaCRoM modules, everybody is speaking the same language and seeing exactly the same data at all times.
Managers and supervisors are timely informed of deviations or critical situations that require immediate attention.
