Corrective Action Request (CAR)
A Corrective Action Request (CAR) is a formal process for addressing and rectifying non-compliance or operational deficiencies within an organization or its supply chain.
The process involves systematically identifying issues, documenting them thoroughly, and implementing corrective measures to prevent recurrence. This is crucial for maintaining high quality, safety,
and regulatory compliance standards.
We undertake CAR audits to ensure your organization effectively manages compliance issues and non-conformities. This involves evaluating the timeliness and appropriateness of corrective actions taken in response to identified problems and the mechanisms in place for tracking
and verifying the implementation of these actions.
By providing actionable recommendations, we help you strengthen your CAR processes, making them efficient, transparent, and capable of driving continuous improvement in compliance practices.
Additionally, we provide the option to draft and process supplier and customer contract amendments and addendums to align with the agreements reached during the CAR process, ensuring that all parties are committed to upholding the corrective measures.
