Course Overview
When your company runs into a major problem, you need to address it quickly. However, you also need to deal with it thoroughly and ensure that it doesn't recur – and this can take a lot of effort and elapsed time.
The 8D Problem Solving Process helps you do both of these seemingly contradictory things, in a professional and controlled way.
Do your staff know the difference between Point of Cause, Direct Cause, and Root Cause? If they don’t, then you’ll always be solving the same problems time after time – they’ll never go away!
At the Centre for Competitiveness (CforC) we have designed an approach using structured problem-solving techniques that are used in Quality Management Systems throughout the world by millions of companies. A selection of the more frequently used of these problem-solving tools have been customised and brought together in an easy to use and high impact approach – The 8D Problem Solving Methodology.
This 8D approach is built upon the approach to problem solving used throughout the world’s automotive industry yet customised to suit Northern Ireland companies – from SME’s to large organizations and everything in-between.
It incorporates 8 problem-solving tools designed to link together to provide an 8-step process (hence the name 8D) in a structured and systematic manner. This process is actually delivered through an 8D template that makes it easy and effective for people to do.

This means that, on the day, every delegate will have used the 8D approach and template to solve a real problem (which is not easy to solve!), thus building knowledge and confidence to lead and participate in 8D problem solving teams back at your organisation.
Each participant will take away with them:
A grounded understanding of the critical few tools for successful root cause problem solving.
An 8D template that can be used in the workplace the next day.
Tips and suggestions for removing barriers and obstacles to problem solving.
Increased confidence due to the successful application of the method with a workshop example.
Who Would Benefit from this 8D Approach?
Owner-managers, managers at all levels in the organisation, especially team leaders, supervisors and middle managers. This 8D approach is suitable for ALL types of company or organisation, not just manufacturing, but also services of any description, public and voluntary sectors, in fact, any organisation that finds itself regularly firefighting.

Creative Problem Solving

The fundamental tool to identify waste, create effective process flow, reduce process cycle times, and implement process improvement. Course OverviewMany organizations that have started down the &ldquo;Lean Journey&rdquo; have realized that improvement events alone are not enough to take the organization to the next level of excellence, productivity, and efficiency. Improvement events create localized improvements, however, Lean tools such as Value Stream Mapping strengthens the gains obtained by providing vision and plan that connect all improvement activities.The primary purpose of creating a value stream map is to show you the places where you can improve your process by visualizing both its value-adding and wasteful steps. It employs a flowchart documenting every step in the process and therefore helps to identify waste, look for ways to reduce or eliminate the waste, and create effective flow of materials and information through all the processes in an organization.It is widely used to improve individual processes but can also be used to analyse and design flows at the system level across multiple processes, or across different departments.Structure of the CourseOur Value Stream Mapping Training course has been designed as a one-day programme so that your business can use it as the tool that allows you to see waste in manufacturing, production, and business processes, and provides the foundation for the creation of plans to remove or streamline non-value-adding steps. This is achieved by analysing the current state and designing a future state for the series of events that take a product or service from its beginning through to the customer.In Value Stream Mapping we follow a process from start to finish monitoring and measuring what happens within, and between, each process step. A flow diagram showing the process is drawn to reflect the current state of the operation. The non-value actions are identified in each step, and the process is analysed for opportunity to drastically reduce and simplify it to the fewest actions necessary.By reducing wastefulness, the redesigned process becomes more streamlined (the right things are being done) and more efficient (needing fewer resources). The reengineered process is flow charted in its future state with process steps and information flows redesigned, simplified, and made less expensive.Although value stream mapping is often associated with manufacturing, it is also used in logistics, supply chain, service-related industries, healthcare, software development, product development, administrative and office processes.This one-day, highly interactive workshop will provide you with all the skills you need to use the Value Stream Mapping approach to make your processes more efficient. Delegates will analyse a real process, map the current state of a real process, identify waste in the process, and apply the tools to map the future state streamlining the process and achieving greater efficiency and productivity, thus building knowledge and confidence to lead and participate in mapping processes back at your organisation.Who would benefit from this Approach?Anyone who manages a process and wishes to make it more efficient and productive will benefit from this workshop.
