Evidencing nonconformity

Why is there not yet sufficient evidence for reporting nonconformity? I'm in process of certification audit.

Answer:

Nonconformity is when a certain requirement haven't been meet. In order to get enough evidence to report the nonconformity, you need to identify the product, service or activity that is nonconforming and also requirement or a procedure to which the product, service or activity is not conforming to.

Evidence of reporting nonconformity would be a Nonconformity Record that would include where the nonconformity occurred, where it was discovered, who discovered it and so on. The standard requires organization to document nature of the nonconformity and subsequent actions taken.
