QMS Preventive Actions

ISO 9001:2015 does not explicitly mention the term preventive action. However, the standard includes, in practice, the development of preventive actions by introducing the concept of the risk-based approach. When you assess the risks of a product or a process, and you decide to act, you are actually taking preventive action.
