Helpful tips to develop an “Effective CAPA system” — ‘3P Model’: CAPA is a fundamental management tool for Quality System demands the three essential steps as illustrated per below Figure.-2 i.e. effective CAPA system is all about the three stages; “3P- Plan, Process & Product”. Step-1 “The Plan” — is to do an effective it vestigation in identifying the right root cause: In general, plan is something begins with the end in mind as a remmwe product we desire, our ultimate {goal to achieve or destination to reach timely and successful manner, which might results into the ineffectiveness or failure in reaching the right destination first in time, if our map or plan is either not available/clear and/or not detailed on “what, why, how, when and where to g0?”, Like-wise, root cause analysis is the first key step in driving an effective CAPA process, approach used for identifying the underlying ‘cause (s) is to understand the basics on how and why an incident occurred s0 as to conclude the most real root / proximate cause (s) of the problem. Root cause analysis is typically used when something goes bad and can be described in asking below three basic questions: ‘What's the problem? This is a typical/problem statement as an ‘outcome of incidents/OOS ete. Why did it happen? This can be answered by using the appropriate tools to find out the causes. What will be done to prevent it? This is typically resultant action points, called as CAPA initiated based on the identified root cause hiiplwwu gmpuiolatons.com/2017)0teectve-capa-system-assurance-taim!

Establishing the why? By using appropriate RCA tool ‘There are several RCA tools (such as Cause and Effect Diagrams, Five whys, Cause map) ing, brain storming, Fault tree analysis, and failure mode and effects analysis) are available and no single one is fit in providing the solutions for all negative events. The applications and selection of tools comes from the experience, ituation and mainly the type of event occurred, Below two tools are discussed here, which are used as most commonly problem solving tools for day-in and out events happens ‘Cause and Effect diagram -bone/6M tool): the tool was invented by Dr. Kouro “Cause and effect diagram”, Ishikawa and known as Ishikawa diagram (also known as “Fish-bone” as its structure appears to be like a fish), which connects the dots with the results obtained (called as symptoms) vis -vis possible cause (s). This tool is most commonly used at the process and manufacturing operations to provide deeper insight in breaking-down the process into the secondary and tertiary causes so as to reach closer to real and/or proximate cause (s). ‘5-Why’s Problem solving approach: “5 Why’s?” is a pragmatic tool to ask “WHY”? And continue to ask until ascertain the right answer on the “root cause of the problem”. The process involves the discussion usually between the cross functional teams comprises with subject matter expert, Manufacturing, engineering, Quality Assurance etc. Step-2: “The Process”: CA (Corrective Action) & PA (Preven Actions) assessment and implementation. An anticipated road-map without converting into the actions has no value as long as it is executed in alignment with the planner. Similarly, root cause analysis has no meaning without converting into CAPAs?. Below is the chronological ways in executing the CAPA’s “PROCESS” effectively. Correction (Immediate Actions/Dispositions): ‘The process of corrections includes to bring back the pro into the desired state or in some cases isolate the event to avoid further damages or impact on the similar or potential product/processes, this hiiplwwu gmpuiolatons.com/2017)0teectve-capa-system-assurance-taim! or product "Efective CAPA Systom- An assurance to"Accepiabe-State-of-Control of OMS ~ GMP VIOLATIONS aah 20,326 [oso Solact Language Poway Google Tana Name Ema Message 4 | arecony 2016 (37) 2017 (31) ait 2) os et eames zon ooo apa (2)CDSCO (Scrstian Geena (1) ‘srg vlein() Data Integrity (8) decT6 (15) Donalé Truro (2) Downloads (15) omc 0 (7) £0) FDA (35) rom cude (1) Fea17 () Casal () Genes Heath 2) ov () GMP.

PA should be trended for the repetitiveness of similar potential problem and its effectiveness be tracked into the quality system with the category of events, examples may include on equipment, product, process, material etc. PA are required to be initiated or completed after closure of investigation or corrective actions , which mainly focuses on the ‘system’s” evaluations and continuous improvement rather than quick fix-up. Ste “The Product”: by ensuring ‘Effectiveness check’. Effectiveness is the process of establishing something worth or degree to which something is capable in producing a desired “Product”, specifically, “Averting the same/similar problem” in future is the key objective in relations to ‘CAPA effectiveness chet . this may include the verification of plan and process as mapped, how did it work, followings can be considered as criterion to prove the effectiveness: « Ensure the completion of CA V/s PA as planned. « Effectiveness of CA/PA can be based on predefined -number of, batches versus period. + Examine the recurring issues, if any and why?

CAPA works begins in parallel to correct the existing problem, while averting the similar potential problem resulting from the investigations of complaints, product rejections, non-conformance's, recalls, deviations, audits, regulatory inspections and findings, and trends from process performance and product quality monitoring. Effective CAPA methodology results in continuous process improvements and helps in enhancing the produet and process understanding so as to make the systems and processes robust in getting first time-right quality product.
