APERÇU

After participating in this course, you will be able to:

• Understand Methodologies used for Root Cause Analysis (RCA)
• Recognize the Role and importance of RCA in Failure Analysis
• Gain insight into Common System failures
• Establish & co-ordinate multi-discipline team to conduct the RCA
• Perform Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment
• Develop the Plan for the Risk Mitigating Actions
• Learn Techniques recommended for the Prevention of Failures

Description
Root Causes Analysis (RCA) enables engineers to address immediate causes of failure but, more importantly, to investigate the underlying root cause. With modern methodologies for RCA, it is possible to identify and eliminate the root cause of a problem by employing suitable mitigating actions.

This course will present modern techniques used to perform RCA. The focus will be on various engineering failures. However, the methodology will also be extrapolated to a more comprehensive range of applications, including business, medical, and other non-technical fields. Several workshops with real-life case studies will be provided, where participants will gain hands-on experience in conducting the RCA analysis. Problems will be solved through teamwork, and the results will be analyzed and discussed.

This course is designed for technical and non-technical professionals with limited or no experience in the subject area and can be taken as a refresher course.

Who Should Attend
Professionals who are responsible for identifying potential failures and their successful solving.
Maintenance engineers and technicians, operators and technologists. Other technical personnel who are directly or indirectly involved in maintenance and repair activities. Non-technical personnel who want to learn about investigative RCA skills are required to troubleshoot any potential problem encountered.
