Module is designed for the documentation and graphical analysis of cause included for action assessment.
Module uses - Regulations
According to methodics requirement "Fishbone" or also popular diagram "Cause diagram and consequence". This methodics was described in VDA 4 or in book "Analysis of root cause" by Björn Andersen and Tom Fagerhaug
Main functions
- implementation and documentation of cause analysis and
- clear saving of all documents and information about the analyse in one place
Preparation for module use
Employees assesment involved in analyse
Employees are loaded from main Users database - separate module in Palstat CAQ
Database assesment of cause
Causes are defined in separate database in the Palstat Launcher using the appropriate module (Complaints, FMEA,...)
Process implementation
1. Creation of record, definition of consequence and other identification of solved problem 2. Main Causes assessment of solved problem (tree branch diagram for example according to Shewhart process - 6M) 3. Brainstorming all available causes and their addition to the diagram. 4. Evaluation of the severity of individual causes through points system. 5. Analyse of cause identification and assessment of most likely root cause.
Ishikawa diagram
Cause analysis can be viewed in Ishikawa diagram form.
Designation of root cause
Designation of root causes are shown in Pareto diagram in this module.
Connection to other modules in Palstat CAQ
Using the "Attachment" function it is possible to:
- Relate modules in SW Palstat CAQ (e.g. Complaints, G8D Report, Audits, FMEA)
- Apply assessment documents with analysis (analysis reason, meeting points, support materials for analysis)
