Problem Statement
Torque audit identified multiple fasteners below the specified tightening range.
Containment
Stopped the affected assembly station and rechecked all units produced during the shift.
Root Cause
Torque wrench verification was not performed at the beginning of every shift and the work instruction did not specify a verification frequency.
Corrective Action
Introduced start-of-shift torque verification and revised the assembly work instruction.
Preventive Action
Added digital torque-tool monitoring and monthly compliance audits.
