Description:
This template documents why an audit nonconformity does not require starting a new CAPA, while keeping a clear, reviewable rationale linked to the Audit Report.

  • Record the audit report number and Date for traceability

  • Maintain Revision control with Change History

  • Identify each Non-conformity (NCXX) with Grading: Major/Minor

  • Restate the NC Description exactly as in the audit report

  • Provide a robust Justification for absence of CAPA (evidence-based)

  • Select a documented Conclusion (existing CAPA ongoing / irrelevant / N/A due to incomplete info / other)

  • Replicate the table for multiple NCs as needed

  • Finalize with Approval (Name, Position, Date, Signature)

Your needs:

  • audit conclusion form

  • audit conclusion form for ISO 13485 compliance

  • Reduce rework and improve audit defensibility for CAPA decisions

Use this audit conclusion form when an auditor raises an NC and you need to justify, in a controlled record, why a new CAPA is not initiated.

Key requirements covered include CAPA (systematic corrective/preventive actions to address root causes) and N/A determination (a documented decision that an NC does not apply due to incomplete or invalid audit evidence).

  • Link conclusions to the Audit Report identifier

  • Document Major/Minor grading per NC

  • Preserve NC wording in the Description field

  • Justify the absence of new CAPA with objective rationale

  • Confirm whether an existing CAPA already addresses the issue

  • Use standardized Conclusion options, including N/A

  • Capture Approval signatures for accountability
