DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION

This product (How to Use the 5-Whys for Root Cause Analysis) is a 9-page Word document, which you can download immediately upon purchase.

Understanding how to use the 5-Whys for Root Cause Analysis. The 5-Why method of root cause analysis requires you to question how the sequential causes of a failure event arose and identify the cause-effect failure path.

‘Why' is asked to find each preceding trigger until we supposedly arrive at the root cause of the incident. Unfortunately, it is easy to arrive at the wrong conclusion. A Why question can be answered with multiple answers, and unless there is evidence that indicates which answer is right, you will most likely have the wrong failure path. You can improve your odds of using the 5-Why method correctly if you adopt some simple rules and practices.

Keywords: Five Whys, Root Cause Failure Analysis, RCFA, cause-effect tree, Fault Tree Analysis, FTA

The Document consisnts of a clear and succinct understand of how to conduct a 5 Why analysis when looking for root cause of problems in a variety of fields. It also includes examples highlighting the methodology applied to real life scenarios.

"As a young consulting firm, requests for input from clients vary and it's sometimes impossible to provide expert solutions across a broad spectrum of requirements. That was before I discovered Flevy.com.

Through subscription to this invaluable site of a plethora of topics that are key and crucial to consulting, I have been able to exceed expectations and deliver quality advice and solutions to my clients. The quality and expertise of the authors are exemplary and gives me great confidence to use as part of my service offerings.

I highly recommend this company for any consultant wanting to apply international best practice standards in their service offerings. "

As a Lean Transformation Expert, I am always making presentations to clients on a variety of topics: Training, Transformation, Total Productive Maintenance, Culture, Coaching, Tools, Leadership Behavior, etc. Flevy usually has just what I need to make my point.

It is well worth the money to purchase these presentations. Sure, I have the knowledge and information to make my point. It is another thing to create a presentation that captures what I want to say.

"I have used Flevy services for a number of years and have never, ever been disappointed. As a matter of fact, David and his team continue, time after time, to impress me with their willingness to assist and in the real sense of the word. I have concluded in fact that it is not at all just a repository of documents/resources but, in the way that David and his team manage the firm, it is like dealing with consultants always ready to assist, advise and direct you to what you really need, and they always get it right.

I am an international hospitality accomplished senior executive who has worked and lived during the past 35 years in 23 countries in 5 continents and I can humbly say that I know what customer service is, trust me.

Aside from the great and professional service that Flevy's team provide, their wide variety of material is of utmost great quality, professionally put together and most current.

Well done Flevy, keep up the great work and I look forward to continue working with you in the future and to recommend you to a variety of colleagues around the world."
