French term

système général de gestion des écarts

French to English Medical Medical: Pharmaceuticals Clinical Trials
Objectif: Décrire le système général de gestion des écarts
Un écart est le témoin d’un processus hors contrôle : écart aux normes, écart au déroulement attendu d’un processus, écart au fonctionnement attendu d’un équipement. L’écart peut être détecté pendant le déroulement d’un processus, lors du contrôle qualité produit, signalé par un client, etc…

For "gestion des écarts" I think of "deviation management", "variance management",...

Target audience is EN-US.

Thanks for your help.

Of course, not. However, the meaning " système général de gestion" is more context-related, it may be the general or standard system, as against specific procedures, or it may be the general system of the organization, as against specific departments. "General" is the most neutral term and can fit anywhere so I suppose, there is no point speculating!

general deviation management system

In this particular instance, I don't think it needs to be capitalized, since the original uses the term rather informally.

P.S. Don't close the question yet. It is recommended to wait for 24 hours to give others a chance to comment and submit their own answers.

Thanks a lot Sandra & Kenneth for your answer. Would you rather disregard the "general" in the ST? :-)
Great! I would like to select your answer, grade and add it to the glossary as it meets my need squarely. Could you please update your answer for this purpose? Thanks.
