Failure to establish and maintain adequate procedures for implementing corrective and preventive action, as required by 21 CFR 820.100(a). For example, your firm opened CAPAs in response to quality audit data which showed the lack of QS regulation training in many departments within your firm. However, the CAPAs do not contain or reference documentation to support complete implementation of the CAPA activities, such as investigating the cause of the nonconformity, identifying the action needed to correct and prevent recurrence, and verification or validation of the corrective and preventive action to ensure that such action is effective and does not adversely affect the finished device, as defined in your firm’s Corrective & Preventive Action Procedure QSR-115.
