    The RCA Tools You Will MasterHands-On Methods You Apply at Work

    This programme builds a complete, practical root cause analysis toolkit over one hands-on day. You learn when and how to apply each method, then practise them on realistic problem scenarios so you can use them immediately at work.

    Define Problems and Collect Evidence

    You will learn to write a precise problem statement, separate symptoms from causes, and gather evidence using Is/Is Not analysis and timeline mapping before any investigation begins. A well-defined problem is the foundation of every effective root cause analysis.

    Apply the 5 Whys Technique

    Drill from an observable problem to its root cause with structured 'why' questioning. You will practise reaching systemic, process-level causes and avoiding the common trap of stopping at human error or blame.

    Build Fishbone (Ishikawa) Diagrams

    Facilitate cause-and-effect workshops across the 6M categories (Man, Machine, Method, Material, Measurement, Environment) to map every potential cause of complex, multi-factor problems, then drill each branch to its root.

    Use Fault Tree Analysis and FMEA

    Model failure pathways with top-down Fault Tree Analysis using AND/OR logic, and apply Failure Mode and Effects Analysis to prioritise corrective actions for safety-critical and high-risk problems on site or on the line.

    Run the 8D Problem-Solving Method

    Work through all eight disciplines, from team formation and interim containment to root cause, permanent corrective action and prevention of recurrence, the disciplined format used across automotive and manufacturing.

    Develop and Verify Corrective Actions

    Turn findings into effective, verified corrective actions that prevent recurrence and meet ISO 9001:2015 (Clause 10.2) and CAPA requirements, then help embed a lasting root cause prevention culture at work.
