Application of 5 Whys + Fishbone Diagram

Application of 5 Whys + Fishbone Diagram

Introduction

5 Whys and Fishbone Diagram are effective tools that can be used to locate the roots causes of a problem.

5 Whys is a problem solving tool that helps to get to the root of a problem. The basic idea is to ask “Why?” whenever a problem is encountered. Typically, the initial response will not trace back to the root of the problem it will only be a symptomatic representation of the overall issue.

Fishbone Diagram goes by several names (Ishikawa, Cause & Effect, etc.) and there are a variety of ways to use. It is primarily a tool for organizing information to establish and clarify the relationships between an effect and its main causes. Fishbone Diagram is able to identify the root cause(s) of the problem so that collective actions can be taken to eliminate their recurrence, develop a picture composed of words and lines designed to show the relationship between the effect and its causes.

Application of Statistical Process Control

Application of Statistical Process Control

Introduction

Control Charts are used in a number of places help control in a process. Control charts are used in a number of places in the Lean Sigma roadmap to test whether a process is stable and in control. By making use of control charts, Statistical Process Control (SPC) can then be applied to help control a process.

Control Charts are time charts designed to display signals or warnings of special cause variation. Special cause variation, as distinct from common cause variation, refers to changes in process performance due to sporadic or rare events indicating that a process is not ‘in control.’ The advantage of Control Charts is that they enhance the understanding of process variation making it easier to take action to reduce special cause variation and improve ongoing process performance.

  • To know about common types of control charts
  • To know how to use the control charts effectively
