    The Root Cause Analysis Tools You Will Master

    A Complete Problem-Solving Toolkit

    This training gives you a complete, practical toolkit for investigating problems and preventing their recurrence. By the end of the day you can select the right tool for a problem, run the investigation, and turn findings into corrective actions that stick.

    Define Problems and Collect Evidence

    Write precise, factual problem statements and use Is/Is Not analysis, timelines and event mapping to gather the evidence an investigation needs before jumping to causes.

    The 5 Whys Technique

    Apply iterative why-questioning to drill from a symptom to a true root cause on simple, single-cause problems, and recognise when an investigation has stopped too soon or slipped into blame.

    Fishbone (Ishikawa) Diagram

    Facilitate team brainstorming across the 6M cause categories, organise potential causes visually, and drill each branch to uncover the contributing factors an obvious answer would miss.

    Fault Tree Analysis and FMEA

    Use top-down Fault Tree Analysis with AND/OR logic for safety-critical and multi-cause events, and apply FMEA to prioritise corrective actions by risk priority number.

    The 8D Problem-Solving Method

    Work through all eight disciplines, from team formation and interim containment to root cause, permanent corrective action and prevention, the standard 8D response used across the automotive supply chain.

    Corrective Action and Verification

    Develop corrective actions that address the verified root cause, tell verification apart from validation, and support ISO 9001 Clause 10.2 and regulated CAPA requirements.
