Nonconformity and corrective action

Write findings that drive sustainable improvement.

Learn

State the requirement or agreed criterion, objective evidence and the specific gap without prescribing an untested solution.

Investigate root cause and assess whether similar issues exist elsewhere.

Verify corrective-action effectiveness after implementation rather than closing on promised action alone.

Remember
  • •Requirement + evidence + gap.
  • •Fix the cause, not just the symptom.
  • •Verify effectiveness.
