Continuous Improvement Through RCA: Series Intro

Continuous Improvement Through RCA: Series Intro

Everyone should be using Continuous Improvement as an ongoing effort to improve equipment reliability, services, and processes. On this episode, host Larry Olson sets the scene for a multi-part series on Continuous Improvement through Root Cause Analysis (RCA).

The series begins with an overview of the RCA basics such as techniques/tools (5 Whys, Fishbone, Cause Mapping, FMEA, PDAC, A3) and the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) process. Then listeners can follow along for the next 5 episodes, as Larry breaks down the DMAIC process and walks through each part as an RCA approach to solving a single problem.
