Should be a standard part of any RCA practitioners toolbox. Bret Ridgway (bridgway@gte.net) In their book, "Root Cause Analysis: Improving Performance for Bottom Line Results," authors Robert J. Latino and Kenneth C. Latino of the Reliability Center, present a step-by-step action plan on how to properly construct and implement a root cause failure analysis program. Unlike many "pie in the sky" programs that offer outstanding results only if things are operating in a perfect world and i. Plant Engineering Magazine Senior Editor Jeanine Katzel Closing the gap between the goals companies set and their actual situations is the overall focus of this book. Written by two experienced executives from the Reliability Center, Inc., the book helps readers identify, resolve, and eliminate the chronic plant floor issues, such as repeated equipment or system failures, that hinder the attainment of organizational goals.Specialists in root cause an. ""TALK THE TALK - WALK THE WALK"" according to A Customer. With the advent of "buzzwords" in the present day work environment, many companies "Talk the Talk", but don't actually "Walk the Walk".

They also present case studies that illustrate RCA's potential. Armed with the knowledge in Root Cause Analysis, organizations can understand why errors occur, essentially eliminate chronic errors from occurring, and witness a direct, positive impact on their bottom line.. To close the gap, corporations must re-invent the way they do work, they must understand why errors occur and how to prevent them, and they must eliminate chronic failures.In Root Cause Analysis: Improving Performance for Bottom Line Results, the authors show how to identify, resolve, and eliminate the chronic issues that hinder the attainment of organizational goals. Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is a structured process that uncovers the physical, human, and latent causes of any undesirable event in the workplace. Following the PROACT steps outlined in this book, companies can learn how to:Preserve event dataOrder the Analysis teamAnalyze the data using logic treesCommunicate findings and recommendations, andTrack for bottom-line resultsThe authors carefully discuss the roles of management and an RCA team, prioritizing the events to analyze, and automating the RCA process with their award winning software. In virtually all industries today, a gap exists between the goals companies set-in terms of profit margin, production goals, and earnings-and their
