Action (Plans)

Overview

CQ provides a centralized and transparent view of all Action Plans assigned to each user, enabling assignees to review task details, due dates, deliverables, and expectations defined during the Investigation or issue‑resolution process. As work is completed, assignees can update the status, provide comments, attach verification files, and confirm that the action has addressed the root cause or requirement it was created for.

Completing Action Plans ensures that the corrective or preventive measures identified earlier in the process are executed effectively and in a timely manner. This step is essential to maintaining compliance, demonstrating accountability, and providing the objective evidence needed for review, approval, and eventual closure of the record.

By allowing assignees to complete actions directly within the system, CQ ensures seamless traceability from root cause to resolution and supports robust quality system performance across the organization.
