Complaint Quality Approver

The Complaint Record Approver independently reviews complaint records throughout the investigation lifecycle and provides the final Quality approval before record closure. The approver confirms alignment on investigation strategy, Root Cause Analysis is appropriate, that appropriate investigation tools are used, and that the right stakeholders are involved, including consideration of end-to-end supply chain factors as applicable. During execution, the approver supports the investigation owner by reviewing updates, requesting clarification or additional evidence, and ensuring new information and follow-up narratives are accurately integrated into the complaint record, including any actions required based on new information. The approver confirms risks are identified, managed and escalated, and supports actions as required. Prior to approval, the approver verifies data integrity and that conclusions are supported by objective evidence, confirms trending and recurrence considerations are addressed, and ensures the investigation summary and outcome are clear and aligned across sites/affiliates when applicable. Additionally, the approver will provide coaching and actionable feedback to issue owners on best practices, system usage, and investigation execution. Finally, the approver verifies required actions (including NC, when applicable) are defined, owned, and appropriately tracked before approving the complaint record.
