Corrective Action Request (CAR)

Typically, organisations utilise a Corrective Action Request (CAR) form to inform partners in the supply chain (supply of plant, goods or services) of problems they are creating for other partners or to investigate a problem that already occurred and requires root cause analysis to resolve the issue to prevent a recurrence. 

When a problem or quality concern arises, including, but not limited to, a fault within a process, a fault within a product, a problem within a facility or part of that facility, or, a customer complaint (a fault within the service), Aloha Consulting prefer to look at the CAR lifecycle rather than just the request. 

To eliminate the cause of non-conformity and prevent a recurrence, we evaluate the entire CAR lifecycle by: 

  • Reviewing the non-conformance;
  • Determining the root cause of the non-conformance;
  • Evaluating the need for action to ensure the non-conformity does not recur;
  • Determining and implementing the required action to rectify the non-conformity;
  • Recording the actions; and
  • Reviewing the corrective actions taken.
