Hi everyone,
Is there anybody knows Out-of-Control-Action Plan?

What could be the possible content or definition of OCAP?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,

Raffy,
From an SPC point of view; when statistical signals indicate that the process has become unstable (out of control), action must be taken to bring the process back in control. Quality and process engineers typically describe these actions to be taken in a "Reaction Plan" and may include:
- Stopping the process
- Notifying a relevant authority (supervisor, engineer)
- Segregating suspect product
- Investigation of the out-of-control condition (possibly based on the history of the performance of the process)
- Making the necessary adjustments or corrections
- Starting the process
- Verifying the the actions taken (process should become stable again)
In many organizations, each process or group of processes has a control plan or quality plan that will make a reference to a "Reaction Plan" or "Out-Of-Control Reaction Plan" when the process is either failing to produce conforming product and/or is becoming statistically unstable.
A favorite question of a (good) auditor is to inquire how the operators are supposed to react when this occurs.
Hope this helps.
