Provide a systematic set of steps to analyze the root cause and solution to any
type of problem. Utilize the Six Sigma Life Cycle to guide users through the problem
solving process successfully. Utilize checklists and prompts to guide the user through
the root cause analysis process. DMAIC helps identify where problems begin and allows
you to fix them before they affect the product or your bottom–line.
HQMS was designed to assist users in their efforts to successfully get to the heart
of an issue and resolve it through the Root Cause Analysis module. Based on the
DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) approach, this problem solving
module leads users through the logical process of identifying and solving the most
complex problems. With HQMS overseers of an analysis can add comments and make approvals
or disapprovals at various stages in the process to provide those working on the
analysis with timely, valuable input.

Like each HQMS module, Root Cause Analysis is fully customizable and gives users
the ability to assign responsibility, add corrective and preventive actions, locations
and parts affected, and individual tasks and assignments to each Root Cause record.
All these thing put together in one convenient module to allow your team to maximize
it’s productivity.
The value of the Root Cause Analysis module within HQMS is clear. Root Cause Analysis
allows complete tracking and control of all Root Cause Analyses and guides users
through the DMAIC process increasing the effectiveness of any root cause analysis.
These functions add to the efficiency of any quality management system and make
life a lot easier for managers trying to keep tabs on all aspects of their business.
