    An effective corrective action process does wonders for improving other processes in your organization. With it you will improve quality and safety.

    As for tools, we use a wiki for our qms and bugzilla for corrective actions. Both work great for delegation and verification of results.

    Data collection and analysis...you can't manage (or improve) what you don't measure.


    Talk with the people who actual work in the area. Listen to their ideas. Empower them to make changes.


    I'm not sure what kind of tasks you're delegating. You can assign tasks in Outlook, for example. Or if you're asking how to ensure people know what to do, many oranizations opt to create work instructions or process maps that show who needs to do what and when.

    As for verification results, if you are asking about simply recording/posting them, you can keep it simple in an excel spreadsheet and use colours to show if the results are within expected target values.

    I hope I've understood your questions.

    Hi,

    Thank You for all responses.

    To Manage Quality Team I choose the Asana. That is the best software to project management.

    Have a nice day.

    We use Lean Manufacturing tools for process improvement. It seems to be the Fit-for-purpose of IATF standard requirement. Of course there are other CI projects.

    There is no "best." You have a box of tools to use. Depending on the situation, pull out the right tool for the job.
