A key outcome of a CAPA investigation is to propose appropriate corrective action.

In a CAPA investigation, the focus is on deciding what needs to be done to fix the root cause and prevent recurrence. The immediate outcome is a proposed corrective action plan that specifies the concrete steps, responsible parties, and timelines to address the issue. Implementing those actions and verifying their effectiveness come after the proposal, as part of carrying out and validating the plan. Reassigning responsibilities may occur as part of executing the plan, but it doesn’t by itself address the root cause. Ignoring the investigation would mean no action is taken, which defeats the purpose of CAPA.
