Handle the reality that an effectiveness check often happens months after the CAPA work is finished.
What we are working through:
  • A decision point when the CAPA actions are complete: does this one need an effectiveness check, yes or no
  • If yes, the CAPA moves into an awaiting-verification state with its own due date, so it stays visible and chased instead of sitting closed and forgotten
  • The verification itself recorded and signed when it happens, against evidence that exists by then
  • If the check fails, a route straight back into a fresh investigation or a follow-on CAPA, rather than a dead end
Why this matters: today a CAPA whose real check is ninety days out has nowhere sensible to live. It either gets signed off early, against evidence nobody has yet, or it gets marked done and quietly forgotten. Both are the failure an eQMS is supposed to prevent.
