ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS

KEPNERandFOURIE® have pioneered a specific thinking approach in Critical Thinking that addresses the fundamental and advanced needs of Root Cause Analysis. This approach uses a commonly supported template with structured questions to guide a team through the analysis phase quickly and effectively. The thinking behind this encourages troubleshooters to ask the right questions of the right people to generate quality data and so promote intuitive deductive reasoning from Subject Matter Experts.

Solve problems first time every time

Root Cause Analysis

Root Cause Analysis is the core process for helping problem solvers to understand the relationship between technical cause and root cause.  Once understood it helps them to collaborate and improve their decision making and prevent the recurrence of problems. The KandF Root Cause Analysis approach is used in many diverse industries for a range of problem situations such as:

 

  • Recurring maintenance issues
  • Sudden loss of server functionality
  • Systems going down altogether
  • Unexpected breakages which are unexplained
  • Facing seemingly unsolvable technical situations
  • Cannot access a email server or data that was corrupted, and many more…
