6-Stage CAPA Lifecycle

From initial containment through root cause analysis to verified closure — every step is tracked, assigned, and auditable.

Containment Immediate action to stop the problem Investigation Root cause analysis 5-Why, Fishbone Correction Plan & implement corrective actions Review Management review & approval Verification Verify effectiveness & close CAR RECURRENCE PREVENTION LOOP
1

Containment

Immediate actions to contain the issue and prevent further impact.

2

Investigation

Root cause analysis using 5-Why, Fishbone, and structured methods.

3

Correction

Plan and implement corrective and preventive actions with owners.

4

Review

Management review and approval of the corrective action plan.

5

Verification

Verify effectiveness and ensure non-recurrence before closure.

Key Features

Complete CAPA Management
From Finding to Closure

Containment Actions

Immediate containment to stop the problem from spreading. Track interim measures while investigating root causes.

Root Cause Analysis

Built-in 5-Why analysis, Fishbone diagrams, and structured investigation templates for thorough root cause identification.

Role-Based Workflow

Segregation of duties across containment, investigation, correction, review, and verification stages with clear accountability.

Effectiveness Tracking

Measure whether corrective actions actually prevent recurrence. Automated re-check scheduling after implementation.

Evidence & Attachments

Attach photos, documents, and evidence at every stage. Complete audit trail with timestamps and user tracking.

NCR Management

Non-conformance reports linked to corrective actions. Classify by severity, source, and department for trend analysis.

Connected Ecosystem

CAPA Integrated Across
the Platform

Corrective actions flow seamlessly from audits, incidents, and risk findings — ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

Internal Audit

Audit findings auto-generate CARs. Track remediation from finding to closure with full traceability.

Incident Management

Incidents trigger corrective action workflows. Link root causes from incident investigations to CARs.

Risk Management

High-risk findings create CARs. Track how corrective actions reduce residual risk scores over time.

Training Management

CARs trigger training requirements when root cause is competency-related. Track training completion.

Document Control

Update procedures and work instructions as part of corrective action plans with version control.
