What is CAPA?
An improvement tool used within good manufacturing practice (GMP) principles and various ISO standards
Aims to prevent issue recurrence
(corrective action) or to prevent issue
occurrence (preventative action)
CAPA is the core of continuous
improvement systems
“… CAPA is a quality assurance system, which addresses quality events, which may occur or could be anticipated to
occur during healthcare products manufacturing.”

Key CAPA definitions
Corrective and Preventative Action
A systematic approach that includes actions needed to correct (correction), avoid recurrence (corrective action), and eliminate the cause of potential non-conforming product and other quality problems (preventative action)
CAPA
Action to eliminate a detected non-conformity. Corrections typically are one-time fixes. A correction is an immediate solution such as a repair or rework.
• Also known as remedial or containment action.
Correction

Slide 6 © PharmOut 2014
Key CAPA definitions
Action to eliminate the causes of a detectednonconformity or other undesirable situation. The corrective action should eliminate the recurrence of the issue.
Corrective Action
Action to eliminate the causes of a potential nonconformity or other undesirable potential situation. Preventative action should prevent the occurrence of the potential issue.
Preventative Action

Slide 7 © PharmOut 2014
Corrective or preventative?
• Product failing specifications
• Confirmed customer complaint
• Use of obsolete documents
• Audit finding
Name it corrective action only if you already have a product non-conformance or process
non-compliance
• Developing adverse trends from monitoring systems
o Shifts
o Trends
o High Variability, and so on
Name it preventative actionwhenever the product, process or system is still in conformance but you discover root cause with
the potential to create non-conformities
• Changing to new material or new design
• Implement new (enhanced) processes
Name it preventative action if it is purely a recommendation to
enhance or improve any product, process or system

The Quality System and CAPA
Quality System
• Defines processes to fulfil product requirements, customer satisfaction and continuous improvement
QMS
• How quality policies are implemented and quality objectives are achieved
Continuous Improvement
• Ongoing activities to evaluate and enhance the Quality System
Data Analysis
• Demonstrates the suitability and effectiveness of the QMS
Corrective Actions
• Identifies action needed to correct the causes of identified problems

Checklists are beneficial in providing a standard, consistent list of potential sources of error.
For example:
• Was the correct procedure followed?
• Was the person trained in the procedure?
• Does the procedure match actual practice?
• Is this a recurring issue?
• Was there an equipment problem?
• Was the equipment calibrated?

Root Cause Analysis (RCA) tips
Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is a key element to a site’s Quality System.
Important considerations include:
• Don’t forget the past – has this occurred previously?
• Don’t stop at the first plausible explanation – complete the process to eliminate all other possible causes
• There may be more than one root cause
• If you do not find a confirmed root cause, address the potential root causes and monitor the issue
• Monitor – follow-up on implemented actions
