Corrective Action Speed vs Root-Cause Resolution
Business ContextCorrective-action plans are often expected shortly after findings are agreed. Developing actions before the underlying cause is sufficiently understood can produce fast responses that correct visible deficiencies without preventing recurrence.
Audit TRIZ ResolutionAllow immediate actions where exposure requires them while linking permanent corrective action to validated causal analysis. Action-plan development should progress in stages as understanding of the underlying problem improves.
Applicable TRIZ Principles
Principle 19 – Periodic Action develops corrective responses in successive stages.
Principle 13 – The Other Way Round works backward from observed failures to identify the mechanisms that produced them.
Principle 23 – Feedback uses remediation results to validate whether the identified cause was correct.
Expected Outcome
Faster initial response
Stronger root-cause correction
Reduced recurring findings
Better remediation effectiveness
Decision Indicators
Action plans are finalized before root causes are understood.
Similar corrective actions recur across repeated findings.
Remediation changes procedures without addressing causal mechanisms.
Root-cause analysis is treated as optional after action planning.
Findings reopen after apparently successful correction.
