Engineering Visionary Change
I am Cassandra Moody, President, Founder, and Principal Engineer of Time For Change, LLC. I have a varied background as a degreed environmental engineer, licensed mechanical engineer, experienced operations engineer, practiced project manager, and leader, by nature. Additionally, I wear many hats: mom, engineer, volunteer, woman, provider, and overcomer. I help organizations drive change across all levels using exceptional communication, vision, and technical competency.
For nearly a decade, I’ve worked in corporate America in the oil and gas industry as an engineer of various capacities. As an operations engineer across various regional business units, I managed a variety of midstream projects varying in scale. I supported the team in developing and adhering to the budget each year. Once a month, I would communicate financial performance from the corporate office to the field locations. I consistently delivered projects under budget and ahead of schedule. A few noteworthy operations projects of mine were the completion of an extensive 150 unit compressor optimization project, integration of assets and personnel from an acquisition into existing operational programs, and the development of companywide chemical corrosion inhibition program including the testing and monitoring processes to evaluate program effectiveness.
A significant portion of my early- and mid-career was spent in the integrity group where I was responsible for the improvement and implementation of both gas and liquid integrity management programs as the company grew and acquired assets. I was the engineer responsible for designing the inspections, making repairs as necessary, and remaining compliant. Before there was an organized location and format for data to be housed and analyzed from, I was part of a team tasked with scoping out ways to house data with the end goal of leveraging data to perform analysis in a proactive and timely fashion. I also lead the charge in developing and executing both a qualitative interim risk management program and a quantitative risk management program. In conjunction with my role, I was responsible for conducting training for company employees on new principles, philosophies, and procedures. I managed a team of integrity professionals to accomplish the associated integrity tasks and ensure consistency while the program was being implemented. Working close with the boots on the ground, I developed useful data collection forms. Because of this experience, I fully appreciate the limitations of working from a truck or a small screen in the weather elements and the accurate, complete, and detailed data requirements a successful integrity program needs. Furthermore, communicating this information to upper management is another arena I excel in.
I bring the unique perspective of cost-conscious operator to the integrity space while being skilled at communicating with the field operations technicians, C-Suite Professionals, service providers, and all roles in between. I am very familiar with the regulations, best practices, desire to do the right thing, and the bottom line: revenue. Integrity programs, specifically, but generally any new, company-wide initiative, are implemented for some compelling and worthy reason. However, they also tend to cost money; a lot of money. I am a problem solver by nature and by profession so I never cease until the company’s objective is sufficiently balanced with the bottom line. I believe “quitting” is the only definition of failure and any other result is simply an opportunity to reengineer.
