Root Cause Analysis is a structured investigation of a defined problem that aims to identify the “true” cause and the actions necessary to eliminate it. The technique is used by many manufacturing companies to eliminate recurring and significant equipment failures. For high performers, Root Cause Analysis is one of the techniques required to attain the last few percent on equipment efficiency.


Benefits of RCA

Root Cause Analysis gives a more pro-active and focused approach to dealing with plant & equipment failures:

  • It allows the elimination of repetitive breakdowns
  • It allows the attainment of world class reliability performance levels
  • It encourages ownership through involvement of operators and maintainers
    in defining solutions
Equipment failures are recorded, categorised and analysed using Pareto Analysis. Significant events are singled out for Root Cause Analysis by the manufacturing team. Root Cause Analysis is conducted involving small facilitated groups of equipment operators and maintainers but can also be applied by individuals within engineering and production teams.
