Root Cause Failure Analysis

Overview

Root Cause Failure Analysis Closed Loop Corrective Action will identity multiple roots and eliminate causes affecting internal, external customer satisfaction, eliminate cost, quality schedule, safety and security issues.

Why Should You Attend

In organizations where employees experience fear, uncertainty or doubt (FUD) production and quality of work will suffer resulting in loss of customers and revenue.   FUD symptoms include:

• Negative attitudes regarding the organization or its customers
• Strained relationships between employees and management
• Us versus them attitude
• Poor morale
• Political behavior
• Overactive rumor mill

These and many more are all symptoms of dysfunctional organizations and must be addressed. 

Processes are an organizations competitive advantage; processes must be effective, efficient and exhibit very high reliability:

• Effectiveness – no rework in any process
• Efficiency – work is completed within or on schedule
• High reliability –no “weak-link” in the chain of processes

Fear is very contagious; it moves from person to person throughout the organization.  Employees will do whatever it takes to survive; however, these actions may not result in the quality of work expected by management.  

The Cost of FUD: ineffective, inefficient and unrealizable processes are costly to the organization.  The average performance of a company is 3-sigma, 25 percent to 40 percent of its revenue is wasted.  A 4-sigma company will lose 15 percent to 25 percent of revenue.  

Process Reliability Modeling (PRM) can easily move an organization to 5-sigma if the issues found during PRM are addressed and a process owner monitors processes; the final result will be a very low FUD factor.
