What does the Method of Procedure (MOP) provide?

The Method of Procedure (MOP) is a critical document that provides a detailed set of instructions for conducting work on equipment or systems. It is designed to ensure that all steps necessary to perform a task are clearly outlined, thus minimizing the risk of error and ensuring safety during operations. This document typically includes procedures, sequencing of tasks, safety measures, and any required checks or balances to ensure that the work is executed properly and efficiently.

Having a comprehensive MOP helps teams adhere to best practices and work standards, especially in mission-critical environments where the reliability and safety of the system are paramount. By following the MOP, technicians and operators can systematically approach tasks while mitigating potential risks associated with equipment operation and maintenance.
