Nonconformance Reports
Nonconformance Reports (NCRs) are formal documents used by organizations to identify and address issues where a product, service, or process deviates from established standards or requirements. When something doesn’t meet the expected criteria—like quality, safety, or specifications—an NCR is created to detail the problem. It outlines what went wrong, the impact of the issue, and steps for correction. This process helps organizations maintain quality, improve operations, and prevent future problems, ensuring they meet customer expectations and comply with regulations. NCRs are essential for continuous improvement in any business or industry.
