CAPA Verification & Closure

Overview

CAPA Verification & Closure confirms that defined actions were completed and that they effectively address the issue. You review evidence, evaluate results, and document whether the actions resolved both the immediate problem and the underlying cause.

This stage creates the final record of CAPA outcomes and establishes traceability for audits and inspections. It completes the CAPA lifecycle by documenting the decision to close the record or perform additional follow‑up if needed.
