 Supporting this, there is nothing stated in either the "[[https://committee.iso.org/files/live/sites/tc176sc2/files/documents/Interpretations/ISO9001_2015_Approved_Interpretations.doc|ISO/TC 176/SC 2 Listing of Approved Interpretations against ISO 9001:2015]]" or "[[https://asq.org/quality-resources/iso-9001/us-tc176|US TC 176 - TG22 - Interpretations]]" forbidding or restricting use of the "preventive action" methodology. And ISO 9000:2015 continues to recognize "preventive action" as a legitimate methodology (Ref. ISO 9000:2015, sec. 3.12.1).
-HOWEVER, I recommend eliminating the use of this confusing term because it is so widely misunderstood. A MUCH better way to approach this topic is through the implementation of actual //risk management tools// (which is what ISO 9001:1994 //should// have required) incorporating the use of [[https://asq.org/quality-resources/fmea|FMEAs (Failure Modes and Effects Analysis]]. A FMEA should be completed for each process (aka **PFMEA** - "Process Failure Modes and Effects Analysis") and design (aka **DFMEA** - "Design Failure Modes and Effects Analysis").
