Root Cause Analysis

Business and Management

Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is a structured problem-solving method used to identify the underlying source of a defect, failure, or incident rather than just addressing its symptoms. Techniques like the "5 Whys" and fishbone (Ishikawa) diagrams are commonly used by engineers, quality managers, and operations teams to prevent recurrence. It is widely applied in manufacturing, IT incident response, healthcare, and safety investigations.
