Synopsis

Undesirable outcomes, chronic failure, incidents, and accidents… The cost of such events to corporations is high, generally adding up to tens and hundreds of millions of dollars in "accepted" losses. Why accept these losses? What if you could understand why these errors occur and eliminate chronic events from occurring altogether? Root Cause Analysis: Improving Performance for Bottom-Line Results, Second Edition shows how to identify, understand, and prevent chronic problems that hinder the attainment of organizational goals using Root Cause Analysis (RCA). The PROACT software, voted "Product of the Year" by Plant Engineering Magazine, and the steps outlined in this text teach you how to automate the RCA process. Used effectively, the information in Root Cause Analysis will improve the reliability of your plant assets and save your company precious time and money.
