Management Oversight Committee
The Management Oversight Committee (MOC) is comprised of management-level or subject matter experts from each of the member agencies. Working directly with the Consortium’s professional staff, the MOC provides agency feedback, reviews new and emerging technologies, provides input and advice on policies, procedures and protocols, and insures efficient and effective operations.
