Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA)
Course Description
The world-leading companies don’t accept things going wrong. They proactively focus on finding and stopping problems from entering their business. They set control mechanisms and checkpoints in place to spot and stop the defects that turn into future failures. They look for what can go wrong before it does and prevent it happening. They learn from their problems and proactively act to prevent them. If your operation is having equipment and production problems you need to discover what they do and how to do it too!
The Training Course Will Highlight ?

To solve problems fast you need to draw together relevant information and knowledge. The vast majority of production problems are the same ones repeated over and over again by different people using the same equipment in different plants or at different times. You should only need to solve a problem once, then let everyone else in your business know the answer. Many companies train their key people on Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA). It starts life with a rush and then dies from insufficient time and resources. RCFA is a powerful concept to be used all the time. If it is reserved for major failures to be used by engineers then its use will die-off quickly. Learn how to make RCFA live every day in your operation.

Training Objective

By the end of this course delegates will be able to:

  • Apply RCFA, 5 Why and FMEA methodologies in failure investigation
  • Think through the possibilities of physical root causes of a failure that go beyond a quick fix
  • Recognize the presence of event chains leading to a failure and analyze causes behind the causes
  • Verify or disprove contributing causes
  • Identify actions or recommendations that will avoid a repetition of the failure or problem investigated
  • Create a fault tree of an incident
  • Look for relevant evidence in a failure investigation or accident
  • Trace and identify the causes of equipment failures and industrial accidents
  • Spot high-risk situations and act to prevent problems
  • Understand the typical human factors involved in failures and accidents

Target Audience
