A report outlining a deviation from product, process, procedure, or compliance specifications. Examples: -A measured part dimension is spec'd to be .250" +/- .002.

It fails as measured at .257". It is a non-conforming part and must be reported.

-An operator fails to follow procedure.

-A regulatory report is not filed on time.

The non-conformance report includes who, what, where, when.

The report generally initiates an investigation into Root Cause (why).

It generally escalates to CAPA (Corrective and Preventative Action)

- steps to immediately correct and systemically prevent (how) the non-conformance.

A non-conformance report documents the details of a non-conformance identified in a quality audit or other process review. The objective of the report is to make an unambiguous, defensible, clear and concise definition of the problem so that corrective action can and will be initiated by management.

The Non Conformance Report (NCR) application is designed to handle product non conformances and facilitate decision-making on how to address nonconformities.

A report issued when a product, process or procedure does not comply with the set standards for a particular ...

Non-conformance report is issued when for example in Engineering standard requirements are not met (material ... craftsmanship ...)

NCR's need to be logged ...actions will be recorded, checked and signed off before the NCR can be closed.

It reminds me of ECN's ...

A Non conformance report is raised whenever there is deviation from the standard and specification. After raising the Non conformance immediate action must be taken. Then proper root cause analysis using deffined methods should be in place. using5 whys or fishbone diagram helps to find the real reason behind the NCR. In can be used in all field and all indutries.

I agree with the answer of Mr. Alex. It is a complete answer.

NCR is a report from the client that for them not good for many reasons.

 

Yes, it can be used in the field of engineering. As an OPEN MINDED Engineer, we listen,check and confirm the report if whats the reason. In there we can already think base on our experience is this not really ok?how can they report like this?it seems the report is right, so therefore this is how we do it. Things like this will come out to our open mind. This will add to our Engineering field of expertise.

NON-CONFORMANCE REPORT

The NCR is a formal notification to the contractor that work does not meet the plans or the specifications for the project. Any item of work found to be deficient - out of conformance with the construction drawings and/or specifications - will be identified by the inspector on the non-conformance report as described in this section. Non-conformance reports will be included on the non-conformance log and tracked through verification that the non-conformance has been corrected.

A NCR IS THE REPORT THAT IS RAISED WHEN THE PRODUCTS THAT DOES NOT MEET (DEVIATION) THE STANDARD SPECIFATION FOLLOWED BY THE COMPANY.

IT CAN CAN BE ANY DEVIATION IN THE PARAMETER OF THE PRODUCT OR SERVICES
