Overview:

If, instead, you look deeper to figure out why the non-conformance is occurring, you can fix the underlying systems and processes that caused it.

Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is a popular and often-used technique that helps people answer the question of why the non-conformance occurred in the first place.

Why you should Attend:

  • When you have a non-conformance in the laboratory, how do you approach it?
  • Do you jump in and start treating the symptoms?
  • Do you stop to consider whether there's actually a deeper problem that needs your attention?

Learn to determine the Root Cause origin of a problem. You will learn a specific set of steps, with associated tools, to find the primary cause of the problem, so that you can:
  • Determine what happened
  • Determine why it happened
  • Figure out what to do to reduce the likelihood that it will happen again

Areas Covered in the Session:
  • Defining the Problem
  • Examining the Data
  • Identifying Possible Causal Factors

  • Taking Corrective Action
  • Verifying the effectiveness of the corrective action
