|---|---|---|
| Wrong-revision NCRs | The outcome the whole system exists to prevent | NCRs coded under another cause |
| Mismatches found by floor checks | Problems caught before product is affected | Zero because nobody is checking |
| Changes implemented before approval | Whether the rule holds | Approval dates back-filled |
| Days from a change arriving to approval | Whether the board keeps up | Fast approvals with skipped impact lines |
| Issues with old copies still out | Whether withdrawal happens | Removal confirmed without a look |
| Changes closed versus open past their effectivity | Whether changes finish | Closing with actions open |
| External documents past their check date | Whether specifications are current | Checks recorded without opening the source |
