CAPA is the immune system of all companies. It is a system
by which you can identify deviations, invest them and implement corrective and
preventive actions to bring improvements in the organization. CAPA processes
are mainly used in industries such as medical device, life science, food
processing, aerospace, automotive etc.
Corrective action eliminates the issue that has caused
nonconformity and prevents repetition. It also helps to move products,
processes, projects and products back to baselines. Corrective actions process differs
from one organization to another and there are several steps taken in order to
solve an undesired event. Few of them are mentioned below:
·
Recognize and acknowledge the nonconformance
·
Conduct root cause analysis
·
Execute a plan in order to correct the action
·
Plan for preventing its reoccurrence so that it
is not repeated in the future
·
Investigate gaps in quality management system in
order to reduce the risk of similar nonconformances
·
Evaluate that corrective action has worked and
nonconformance hasn’t repeated.
Preventive action determines prevention of potential
occurrences in the future. It means identifying not only the issues that has
caused but also opportunities to improve the same in the coming days. With the
changes which is being implemented, controls should be included to prevent and
check for possible nonconformities. It
can also be used to improve the effectiveness of a process. Preventive action
processes include:
·
Identify nonconformance or the area where
improvement is required from trending analysis, customer recommendation or
internal discussions.
·
Develop plan and implement preventive action
·
Evaluate the efficiency of preventive action
·
Verify that preventive action has worked and
nonconformance has been resolved and process improvement has been realized
