amsup.com - Course on 8D Problem Solving

This course will provide the participant the information required to complete an 8D Problem Solving Process for the automotive O.E.M.’s. As a part of this activity the participant will learn the 8D Process and begin to use the process on an actual company problem. In addition and as a part of this learning experience the participant will use a cause and effect diagram to develop potential root causes of their problem.

Learning Objectives:

Participants will have a detailed understanding of the generic "8D" Problem Solving Process.
Participants will have an understanding of Chrysler, Ford, General Motors specific Problem Solving Process as well as others such as Kemper-Tregeo.
Participants will have learned to carry out an "8D" process using an actual problem at their company.
Participants will have an understanding of how to use a cause and effect diagram to determine potential root cause.
Participants will understand the scope and the philosophy of the "8D" Problem Solving Process.
Participants will know how to initiate an "8D" process and to get containment.
Participants will know which quality tools can be used with each of the 8 disciplines.
Participants will understand the process leading to root cause analysis and will have attempted to get to root cause in an actual situation.
Participants will understand how the cause and effect diagram can be of utmost importance in defining the possible root causes.
Participants will know what support is required from management to have the "8D" process work successfully in their work environment.
Participants will have experienced the team action required to get to root cause of a problem.
