Root Cause Analysis and the 8D Problem Solving Bootcamp (Accredited)

In this course, I will cover four broad strategies or approaches for Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and problem-solving:

1. Five Why's

2. Cause and Effect Diagram

3. A3 Problem Solving Approach

4. Eight Disciplines or 8D Problem Solving Approach


Depending upon the complexity of the problem, you can choose one of these approaches.

While taking these approaches, many tools and techniques could be applied. I will cover many such tools, for example:

1. Seven Basic Quality Tools (Cause and Effect Analysis, Flow Chart, Check Sheet, Pareto Chart, Scatter Plot, Control Charts and Histograms)

2. Descriptive Statistics (Mean, Mode, Median, Range and Standard Deviation)

3. Graphs and Charts (Box and Whisker Plot, Individual Value Plot, Bar Chart, Pie Chart, Bubble Chart, Matrix Plot, and Time Series)

4. Value Stream Mapping

5. Tools for D1 (Establish the Team): Team Roles, Team Stages, Conflict Management and Negative Team Behaviours

6. Tools for D2 (Describe the Problem): 5W2H, SIPOC, Gemba Walk and Stakeholder Analysis

7. Tools for D3 (Interim Containment): Identification and Traceability

8. Tools for D4 (Root Cause Analysis): Brainstorming, Nominal Group Technique and Affinity Diagram

9. Tools for D5 (Develop CA): Poka-yoke, Force Field Analysis, Control Plan and Benefit-Cost Analysis

10. Tools for D6 (Implement CA): Gantt Chart, RACI Matrix, Reports and Dashboard

11. Tools for D7 (Prevent Recurrence): FMEA

This course has very interesting aspects but also often states the obvious or repeat too much what was already explained. The examples are too much based on Minitab and the learning sources point to a commercial site with complex cookie settings that are difficult to decline all.

By Anonymized User on 10/7/2024

Good match. Much of the material I have not had to use in recent years. It has been a good refresher and prompted me to use some of the tools I had forgotten were available.

By Eusebio Deiana on 9/26/2023

The course in itself is pretty interesting...explanations are clear and comprehensive. The problem is that you must have minitab in order to fully benefit from it otherwise you miss the applicative part.

By Dr. ANIKET SAXENA on 11/20/2022

It was an amazing experience learning the Root Cause Analysis process & 8D corrective actions in a way it was fun & easy to remember. The instructor is highly knowledgeable & his teaching methodology is equally engaging.

By Cesar Castillo on 10/5/2022

Super engaging and inspiring course. Personally, I feel very comfortable with the real-life examples and the practical part too. I've been able to apply this knowledge (use of pareto charts, RCA etc etc) in my daily work routine and create amazing analysis.

By Carol M Granston on 3/29/2022

I am a quality professional and this course was an excellent review because many concepts and tools are often forgotten in the workplace. I am however, very annoyed at the instructions for finding the exam.

By Fikret Yalcinkaya on 2/7/2022

I am amazed how well taught the contents and the tools are. The explanations are deep and large, so that even a slow thinkers can catch the details. I also could revise my Minitab knowledge. Thank you Sandeep Kumar.

By Eugenio Villar Fonseca on 1/28/2021

Really satisfied with the quality of the course, the topics are well estructured and explained using examples, the course material is clear and solid. But the best by far is the instructor Sandeep Kumar. Highly recommended.

By James John Atuh on 1/25/2021

Met my objective in learning RCA & 8D Method. The instructor is a Subject Matter Expert and has wealth of experience in the field of quality. The materials in the course are interesting and it shows some practical examples on how to utilize tools either with Excel or Minitab. I learned a lot from this course. Thanks!

By Sandeep Joshi on 11/21/2020
