The Non-Conformance section helps you to log an issue, including the uploading of any evidence, classify the type and severity of the Non-Conformance and assign those responsible for managing it. You can also record decisions regarding “Immediate Corrective Actions”.
Inform the supplier of the issue with a single click, then chase them for any outstanding responses via the in-built chaser. Log the supplier’s response, defining the root cause and preventative actions, then verify the closure of the issue.
A dedicated section of the software contains the reports to help you on a day-to-day basis to manage outstanding issues.
