    Instructions for Auditor(s):

    2. Describe all identified non-compliances and include photos. Actions must also be described.
    3. Complete all mandatory fields / questions

    Inspection Ratings:
    "Great evidence of Compliance" (score 2) implies no risk and that systems or behaviours meet GMP & Safety requirements. No further action required.
    "Inconsistency with Compliance" (score 1) implies potential risk and that systems or behaviours may not quite meet GMP & Safety requirements. Immediate action may be required during time of inspection such as a focused conversation with a team member focused around requirements, which would lower/eliminate the risk and have positive impact on compliance. A description of that action taken should be recorded in the inspection report. Repeated inconsistencies would trigger a "Non-compliance requires CAPA".
    "Non-compliance requires CAPA" (score 0) implies a failure in a system or behaviour that does not meet GMP & Safety requirements. Corrective and Preventative Action (CAPA) must be determined via consultation, DMAIC or 5Y, and then recorded in SEQIS, LAMS, Risk Register, MEX Tier Meeting or Site Broad Plan. Once a CAPA has been established make a reference in your inspection report (e.g. refer work order #1234 or refer SLT T3 Long Term Action Board).
    "No Change but CAPA in place" (score 1) implies that a non-compliance raised from previous audit(s) has not yet changed but has been assigned a CAPA that will address the non-compliance. No further action is required however follow up or assistance with close out is encouraged.
