in this episode, Georg Digel will help use solve 3 major problems with our CAPAs. He will tell you what these problems within your Quality Management System are and propose some solution. We will also talk about the education of the team.
I’ve reviewed too many Medical Device CAPAs over the last 10 years. I think I’ve seen almost every mistake there is …Some of my “favorites”:
– Initiating CAPA without gathering facts
– Setting up KPIs but not monitoring them
– Confusing Correction with Corrective Action
To be honest – I’ve made many of these mistakes myself.
Luckily, I learned and improved. Over time, I even took on bigger responsibilities. Some projects which I really enjoyed:
– Process harmonizations for 60 sites
– Setup of training programs for 1.000+ people
– KPI dashboard implementations for 813 CAPAs
My learnings were paired with painful experiences. I want to save you from all of them. My goal is to help you:
1. Avoid CAPA related audit findings or 483s
2. Implement meaningful metrics for your CAPAs
3. Train your people so they close records effectively
