Act

If there are remaining problems or newly created ones, initiate a new quality control cycle. Back out any changes that resulted in outputs that are worse than the original situation.

If the changes are effective, update the project plans, process documentation, and other materials affected.

Communicate all changes made to affected individuals, and incorporate the results of your efforts in project performance reporting.
