Current scope
Compare declared activities with actual products, sites and contractors. Preparation starts with understanding scope, not printing procedures.
Trial traceability
Trace a selected lot from purchase to sale using normal records. Note breaks in the chain and retrieval time.
Operational observation
Compare procedures with receipt and warehouse practice. Missing implementation requires action; training signatures alone do not demonstrate competence.
Corrective actions
Separate immediate corrections from root-cause measures. Allocate deadlines, responsibilities and subsequent effectiveness checks.
Follow-up
Review findings and evidence expectations. An informal comment is not a product-status decision. Preserve action and effectiveness records.
