Uptime Elements Root Cause Analysis
Uptime Elements’ Root cause analysis (Rca) is an overarching term that incorporates a variety of methods and tools to anticipate potential issues, factors, deficiencies or events that could negatively affect the enterprise, its value stream, safety of its employees or compliance with government regulations.
Root cause analysis is part of a more general problem-prevention, problem-solving process and an integral part of the risk management [RI], reliability [RE], loss elimination [OPX] and continuous improvement [CI].
Because of this, root cause analysis is one of the core building blocks in an enterprise’s sustainability and continuous improvement efforts. It is important to note that root cause analysis in itself will not produce any results; it must be made part of a larger problem-solving effort for quality improvement and the knowledge gained from it converted into actions.
