Root Cause Analysis Methodology in an Enhanced Business Management System: Description and Webinar
The Lean Six Sigma toolset is not very efficient in addressing root cause identification for an single event (special-cause event) or problem, it works best to address chronic (common-cause problem) issues. That should not imply that there are not Lean Six Sigma tools that can be used to support a root cause analysis or corrective action effort. In this webinar we will show you a set of Lean Six Sigma tools that can be applied to these efforts, which may seem familiar to an RCA practitioner but they have different names in Lean Six Sigma. We will work through a general corrective action event and show how the Lean Six Sigma practitioner can use their skills to quickly determine the root causes in a method that everyone will understand. Take-aways: – Identify the Lean Six Sigma DMAIC tools that are beneficial in a RCA; – Describe how the use of the DMAIC tools overcome one of the great weaknesses in RCA.
