Corrective Action Verification

Evidence-based follow-up of corrective actions and closure.

A focused engagement that verifies whether corrective actions raised — by any auditor, customer or regulator — have genuinely addressed the cause and remain effective in practice.

What it covers

Review of the stated root cause against the evidence, and whether the analysis holds
Assessment of whether the corrective action addresses the cause or only the symptom
On-site verification that the action is implemented and operating as described
Effectiveness verification at an interval sufficient to demonstrate the fix has held

Who it's for

Businesses with a history of recurring nonconformities across audit cycles
Sites closing out a customer or certification audit that require independent verification
Operations where corrective actions are being signed off internally without challenge

What you receive

An independent verification statement per corrective action — closed, or not closed, with reasons
Identification of corrective actions that were closed prematurely and why
Root cause analysis challenge where the stated cause does not explain the nonconformity
A recurrence risk assessment across the corrective action set

Standards referenced

ISO 22000:2018, ISO 19011:2018
