In regulatory environments, the focal point of any quality system is corrective and preventive actions, or CAPA. An organization's combined efforts to investigate and correct quality issues - and to prevent their recurrence - are crucial to maintaining compliance with regulatory standards. A solid CAPA program is critical to sustaining long-term product quality as well. Maintaining compliance with globally recognized regulatory requirements (FDA guidelines, ISO standards, etc.) is particularly crucial. Managing CAPA online with a proven automated solution that has been properly implemented can improve product quality and safety, enhance the customer experience, and - most importantly - ensure compliance with established regulatory guidelines.
