Description
Course Description:
Root cause failure analysis is a process for identifying the true root cause of a particular failure
and using that information to set a course for corrective/preventive action.
From a technical standpoint, it is usually a multidisciplinary problem, typically focused on the
traditional engineering fields such as chemistry, physics, materials, statics, dynamics, fluids, etc.
However, it seems that too often the analysis stops with the technical aspects that are easily
understood in an engineering environment, where the real root cause may exist in the human organization.
In this course, a practical guide to root cause failure analysis will be provided, followed by case
studies to demonstrate both the technical and organizational nature of a typical root causes failure analysis.
Introduction:
Despite the best efforts to avoid them, failures are still a common occurrence in every industry. Of course, there are the more obvious and well-publicized failures in the automotive, petrochemical, aerospace, and mining industries, just to name a few, but there are also many less catastrophic failures occurring at any point in time. Failures not only represent imperfection in the technical attempt to design and operate complicated systems, but they also represent organizational inability to successfully manage the competing interests of time, quality, and money. Therefore, in the interest of continuous improvement, it is in one’s best interest to learn all one can from these failures, allowing us to avoid
making the same mistake twice.
The root cause failure analysis (RCFA) process begins with the collection phase, followed by the analysis phase, and concludes with the solution phase.
Course Objective:
The main objective of this course is to provide participants with a practical guide for performing root cause failure analysis and determining the appropriate corrective/preventive action necessary to avoid the same failure in the future.

Mechanical, maintenance, materials, production, and operations engineers and supervisors and other technical staff working in the field.
