Introduction
This extensive class provides delegates abroad coverage of Root Cause Analysis and Correct Action-Preventive Action (CAPA) technique and tools. The purpose of this course is to provide delegates with the knowledge and skills necessary to facilitate an effective problem-solving analysis. The training introduces delegates to problem-solving methodology, demonstrating how you can select and apply the most appropriate tools and techniques to investigate and solve a variety of problems. Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is a method of problem-solving used to identify the root causes of faults, failures or problems which can enable professionals in your organization to identify the reasons why things go wrong and address the issues when customers complain about products and services.
RCA & CAPA encompass a wide range of approaches, tools, and techniques which enable problem-solving teams to look deeper into problems, uncover causes and suggest possible solutions, allowing you to prevent and control chronic and recurring problems by eliminating or detecting the causes of failure in your product design, production processes and administrative systems. During the course delegates will be able to implement RCA & CAPA methodologies to address concerns including:
- Product failures
- Process failures and poor product quality (defects)
- Poor process flow and productivity
- Cost of poor events and rework
Addressing the root causes of problems improves quality, process flow, and productivity while also improving staff morale as employees become engaged and empowered in the creative process of problem-solving and process improvement at all levels of the organization.
Objectives
- Use a structured approach to identifying and defining the problem, determining the root cause through analysis and defining an appropriate solution/preventive action.
- Use a range of logical, data, process and root cause analysis tools to develop an understanding of the problem and identify a root cause.
- Understand the importance of and approaches to verifying a root cause.
- Identify, evaluate and develop solutions that address the root cause of the problems and prevent reoccurring.
- Participate in effective problem-solving teams utilizing RCA & CAPA tools.
How to:
Training Methodology
The interactive program utilizes different methods, such as examples, practical exercises, case studies that enable participants to apply the concepts and methods learned in their actual environment. In each module, participants will review industry related examples & a variety of tools used in respective module topics; interactive group practical exercise/scenario to apply the learned concepts on real-life situations from the work environment. At the end of the program, the evaluation will incorporate lessons learned.
Who Should Attend?
This course is ideal for anyone whose job involves problem-solving. As a minimum, all supervisors and lead personnel should take this course and anyone desiring a general understanding of problem-solving/error-proofing technique and tools for process performance, product conformance, and quality management systems, engineering processes, quality control, especially supervisors, managers, and professionals new to the field in aviation:
