Nonconformity and Corrective Action records

Answer:

NCR of nonconformity record is a way of documenting nonconformity that occurred in the Quality Management System. Its purpose is to describe the nonconformity and give an input for further actions regarding nonconformity. The standard does not prescribe what information NCR should include but it usually contain information about the process where the nonconformity is identified and who identified it.

CAR or corrective action record is used to document actions taken for removing nonconformity, this includes analysis of nonconformity, determining the causes, defining actions to remove the cause and providing evidence of corrective action effectiveness.

These two can be separate records but there can also be one record that meets requirements for both NCR and CAR, here you can find a free preview of our Nonconformity and Corrective Action Record https://community.advisera.com/topic/nonconformity-and-corrective-action-records/
