COURSE OVERVIEW
This four- to five-day Root Cause Analysis of Systems Failure Comprehensive Training course brings together important concepts from engineering, quality assurance, problem-solving, procurement, and other disciplines to identify and eliminate the root causes of failures occurring in complex systems, subsystems, and components.
We will show you how to utilize fault tree analysis for identifying potential failure causes. We will also arm you with procedures and technologies for working through various types of systems failure. We will learn how hardware analysis, statistical analysis, design of experiments, technical data package evaluation, and other pertinent tools and techniques can be brought together to define the root causes of a failure and to develop a plan of corrective actions. The Root Cause Analysis of Systems Failure Comprehensive Training course will utilize real-life case studies to help you apply this toolkit effectively to your job. At the end of the course, you will have learned how to identify dominant failure modes through quantity and cost-based Pareto analysis, identify the root causes of systems failures, select and implement effective corrective actions, and work as an inter-organizational, multi-disciplinary failure analysis team.
