Effective corrective action programs promptly and consistently screen newly reported issues for their impact on the organization’s vision, mission, values, and goals. These screenings prioritize and aggregate corrective actions from all business areas with the organization’s strategic initiatives and day-to-day operations; ensuring optimal resource use. Consequently, condition report review meetings are frequently used to review and prioritize newly submitted condition reports.

As a business owner, you will doubtless have particular markets that you sell your wares to. For instance, let’s say that you run a bicycle store.

Determining the amount of time required for performing causal analyses is a balancing act. The depth of issue investigation should align with its significance. Consequently, more significant events require additional time to perform the more detailed causal analysis assigned to them. Countering this is the urgency to understand and correct the underlying causes of more significant events as well as to put into place those barriers that will prevent their recurrence. Thus, it is important to establish time limits for causal analysis performance that effectively balance these two opposing needs.

Effective corrective action programs support achievement of the organization’s vision, mission, values, and goals. Consequently, adverse conditions and trends as well as performance improvement opportunities entered into the program must be aligned with these stated outcomes lest the program’s resource be diverted to non-value adding issues and its effectiveness be diminished. Formally defining corrective action program reporting criteria helps ensure the desired alignment is achieved and program effectiveness maximized.

We all theoretically recognize that everyone has the right to their own beliefs. But in situations where we have great passion (or the moral high ground, as we would like to believe) we have difficulty being generous with those who disagree with us. Wouldn’t it be nice to persuade others to see the world as […]
