8D Problem Solving Methdology Training

The 8D Problem Solving Process Tools Workshop provides participants with the skills and knowledge that they will need to solve problems using the Global 8D industry standard model. This workshop provides an emphasis on the practical use of common problem-solving tools.

The presentation includes technical concepts, classroom discussion, and hands-on exercises. Teams of participants will perform the hands-on practical exercises which allow the participants to take the theories and practice them in a team-oriented atmosphere. Other proprietary and company-specific case studies and documentation may be incorporated into the training where appropriate.

Course Objectives: 

In your company, if you were to assign 5 different people the task of solving a problem;

  1. Would they come to the same conclusions?

  2. Would they all succeed?

  3. Would success depend on their background?

  4. Would they apply the same strategy?

  5. Would they gather and use the same information?

The answer in most companies is NO to each. What we supply is Skill Development in Root Cause Analysis following the 8D Process, such that numerous persons could face the same situation, gather the same data, draw the same conclusions, and have nearly the same chance of success for problem resolution.

This is something that could be used by all your personnel, making big differences in your business quickly.

This course can be given in 2-day formats, depending upon use of Applications Problems directed to real problems at your facility.
