The Management of Change (MOC) conference was created by the Federation of Government Information Processing Councils (FGIPC - now ACT) as a forum to bring together government executives from throughout the country and from all levels of government to share ideas, solutions and strategies on the application of information technology to government. The first MOC was held in San Antonio, Texas in 1980.
Today, the Management of Change conference is the longest running event in the government IT community, well respected for its timely and relevant topics and speakers. While the ACT Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing MOC, ACT and IAC collaborate on the planning and management of the conference.
MOC is held each June within driving distance of Washington, DC. and attracts approximately 425 attendees. To sustain the collaborative objective of MOC, a ratio of no more than three industry attendees per government attendees guides registration.
A major part of the Management of Change conference is the presentation of the Intergovernmental Solution Awards (ISA) which recognizes outstanding intergovernmental IT programs. Award winners are invited to display their program at the conference. MOC tends to attract more program managers and state and local government officials than other ACT-IAC events..
