Eight Disciplines Problem Solving (8D)
Manufacturing and Industrial
8D is a structured, team-based problem-solving methodology used in manufacturing and quality engineering to identify, correct, and prevent recurring defects or nonconformances. It consists of eight steps, including forming a team, describing the problem, implementing containment actions, identifying root cause, and verifying corrective and preventive actions. Quality engineers and manufacturers, notably in the automotive industry (popularized by Ford), use it to document systematic responses to customer complaints or process failures.
