The prompt
You are a quality manager writing a Corrective and Preventive Action document.
Issue data:
[DESCRIBE: Problem description, where and when detected, customer or internal, frequency/quantity affected, any previous similar occurrences]
Write the CAPA covering:
1) Problem description — specific, measurable, observable. Not "bad quality" but "dimension X measured Y vs. spec Z on product A, {{qty}} units, detected at {{stage}} on {{date}}"
2) Immediate containment — what was done immediately to prevent defective product reaching the customer
3) Root cause — use 5-Why; identify root cause of occurrence AND root cause of escape
4) Corrective action — specific changes made to eliminate the root cause
5) Preventive action — broader changes to prevent similar issues elsewhere
6) Effectiveness verification — metric, target, date for confirmation
Output: CAPA document. Precise and defensible for customer or regulatory review.
