PROBLEM SOLVING PPT TEMPLATE DESCRIPTION

Editor Summary Six Sigma - DMAIC Problem Solving Process & Tools is a 182-slide PowerPoint training module (with supplemental XLSX and Word files) developed by Operational Excellence Consulting LLC and a Senior Executive/Operational Excellence Coach with experience at NOKIA, MICROVENTION, and MAGELLAN. Read more Covers the 5 DMAIC phases (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) and includes templates and tools such as a DMAIC worksheet, IS – IS NOT Matrix, Fishbone Diagram, Process Flowchart, and Control Plan Template. Target users include operational excellence teams, quality assurance professionals, project managers, and team leaders. Sold as a digital download on Flevy.

Use this deck when organizations need a structured, team-based problem-solving approach for process improvements — for example during workshops, recurring issue resolution, or internal training on root-cause analysis.

  Operational Excellence teams facilitating a workshop and running the Define and Measure activities with group exercises and a project plan.
  Quality assurance professionals conducting root-cause analysis using Fishbone diagrams, 5 Whys, and data visuals like histograms and scatter plots.
  Project managers developing and executing an Improve plan and a Control Plan to sustain gains.
  Team leaders training staff on DMAIC roles, measurement systems, and verification tasks.

The five-phase, data-driven and root-cause-focused DMAIC sequence reflects standard Six Sigma practice used in operational excellence programs.

The only restriction is that you cannot publicly re-distribute, sell, rent or license the material as though it is your own. Thank you."

This training module delves deep into the terminology essential for understanding the DMAIC problem-solving process. It covers key concepts such as symptoms, problems, possible causes, most likely causes, and root causes. Each term is clearly defined to ensure your team can identify and address issues effectively. This foundational knowledge is crucial for any Six Sigma practitioner aiming to drive process improvements.

The module includes practical tools like histograms and scatter plots to visualize data and identify trends. These tools are indispensable for making data-driven decisions and understanding the underlying causes of process variations. The training also covers the 5 Why’s Analysis, a technique that helps teams drill down to the root cause of problems by repeatedly asking "Why?" This method is straightforward yet powerful in uncovering the real issues behind process inefficiencies.

The role of team members is also emphasized, outlining their responsibilities in providing technical input, carrying out assignments, and offering ideas. The module includes a checklist to ensure all necessary inputs are considered when forming a problem-solving team. This ensures that every team member is aligned and focused on the common goal of process improvement.
