Non-Conformance Report Forms

What is a Non-Conformance Report?

A non-conformance report (NCR) is a document commonly used in construction industries to document work that has not met required quality standards. These reports are an essential part of the quality control process and aim to mitigate risks by implementing corrective actions and to prevent similar situations from recurring.

What is a Non-Conformance Report Form?

A non-conformance report form is a tool used by project managers to record any non-compliance or plan deviation, how it occurred, and corrective measures to prevent similar events from recurring. It is also used in determining a resolution with a client and documenting any corrective changes applied.

An effective NCR Form fundamentally contains these 4 key elements:

1. Detailed observation of the non-conformances;
2. Corrective actions to be implemented;
3. Rectification process; and
4. Closure of the case

iAuditor as a Digital Non-conformance Reporting Tool

Non-conformance reporting involves back and forth handover of paper forms between managers and project team members. Observations are also difficult to document without the ability to take photo evidence. This process is time-consuming and also leaves risks unresolved and unattended over time. Using a digital inspection app like iAuditor can:

1. Help streamline workflows, eliminate paperwork and promote timely reporting.
2. Take photo evidence and detailed notes of observations associated with the NCR Form.
3. Assign actions within your digital NCR Form to relevant teams and authorized personnel for immediate resolution.
