The unfortunate reality is that, when faced with a problem, a
common
reaction is to fix the obvious symptoms without regard for the actual causes.
A root cause analysis is a structured and thorough review of a problem. It
is designed to find out what is actually causing the symptoms. Trained analysts act
as detectives to find the guilty party - the cause or causes of the problems. The
tools of Root Cause Analysis Using Creative Problem Solving are
extremely useful for:
 |
Understanding the real problems
|
|
Identifying solutions |
|
Implementing solutions |
The outcome is an understanding of basic causes. This can then lead to a plan for
correction and prevention so the problem does not come back. Maybe it’s time to
get off the treadmill and cut your risk.
