Root Cause Analysis

Root cause analysis is a technique that uncovers the true cause of product contamination or quality problems and supports identification of effective actions to eliminate the problem, prevent recurrence, and reduce risk. Performing root cause analysis provides a structured proactive approach to incident investigation, allowing more effective long-term solutions that prevent such incidents from recurring.
