NCR (Non-Conformance Report) - How to Raise an NCR Effectively

In QA/QC, identifying a non-conformance is only the first step.

The NCR should clearly communicate what is wrong, where it occurred, what requirement was violated, and what action is required.

Key points while raising an NCR:

NCR Number & Date

Exact location / Item / Joint No.

Clear description of non-conformance

Drawing / Specification / WPS reference

Actual condition vs. required condition

Size, location & extent of defect

Sketch / Photograph / Section view, if required

Immediate action taken

Corrective & preventive action

Responsible department & target date

Re-inspection and final closure

Simple flow:

Raise NCR →

A well-documented NCR helps in traceability, corrective action and continuous quality improvement.
