Enabled Energy’s technical staff kicked off 2020 in Denver by attending RCA Training provided by Lee Dawson of Quality One International (https://quality-one.com/).
“Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is a comprehensive term encompassing a collection of problem solving methods used to identify the real cause of a non-conformance or quality problem. Root Cause Analysis is the process of defining, understanding and solving a problem. The root cause has also been described as an underlying or fundamental cause of a non-conformance, defect or failure. Furthermore, the term “root cause” can also be referred to as the precise point in the causal chain where applying a corrective action or intervention would prevent the non-conformance from occurring.”
The EE Team explored several different methods of problem solving through a variety of hands on exercises. Some of these included determining the root cause by utilizing “The 5 Whys”, “Fishbone Diagram Analysis”, “Infinity Diagrams” and “Is / Is Not Analysis”. The EE Team learned to use both inductive and deductive reasoning to describe the problem and determine the root cause. As a team, they are now more confident that they have additional tools available to methodically determine the root cause of their client’s problems in their data centers.
