You can’t maintain operational efficiency - or build strong supplier partnerships - without a structured approach to managing and resolving deviations.

Diagnostic questions

- Have deviations in incoming goods gone unaddressed?
- Have ongoing quality issues led to strained relationships with suppliers?
- Are there recurring deviations that should have been addressed by supplier CAPAs?
- Can you track the impact—such as production delays, waste and rework—of supplier deviations on your operations?
