makes up a problem
• 3 Step Method
1. Clarify the Problem – Define the Problem
2. Analyse the Problem
3. See Countermeasure Through & Verify Results
• Summarized Key Points
• Q&A
Agenda
2
• Defining problems
• Pareto
• Determining correct root cause
• Utilization of Cause and Effect Diagrams
• Understanding 5 Why Analysis
• Implementing and monitoring results
Key Learning Objective
3
• A3 is a paper size
• A3 were originally used because it was the largest size of paper that could be
faxed
What is an A3?
CONFIDENT IAL AND PROPRIETARY
A3 Overview
• A3 is a structured problem solving method

What Defines a Safe Environment?
ā€œProblemsā€ improve our worksite
and the work itself.
ā€œNo one has more trouble than the person
who claims to have no trouble.ā€
(Having no problem is the biggest
problem of all.)
by Taiichi Ohno
Step 1- Clarifying the Problem
ā€œDRiV: Confidentialā€ 7
Step 1 -
Clarify the Problem –
Define the problem
• Clarify the Current Situation and Current Standard(Ideal Situation) of
your work
• Visualize the gap between the Current Situation and the
Current Standard(Ideal Situation)
• Determine the impact
– the WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT

2 types of Problem: Type 1 and 2
Type 1: deviation from standard
Type 2: deviation from true north
Obstacles to Problem Solving
Assumptions
• Believing we understand the problem or
what the problem is
• Knowing how to fix the problem without
know the real cause
• The fix we put in place solved the
problem without monitoring results
How to Develop a Problem Statement
• What?
• Where?
• When?
• How many?
• What is the standard that was violated?
CONFIDENT IAL AND PROPRIETARY
How to Develop a Problem Statement Example
• Qty + Units + defect/issue + occurrence location + when did it happen
+ standard violated.
• $ 1.30 Scrap CPU on Assembly Line 10 during Q1 2020 vs $
0.133 CPU AOP. This is $ 1.17 CPU above target.
CONFIDENT IAL AND PROPRIETARY
What is wrong? Scrap out of target
Where did it occur? Line-10, Assembly DRiV Kettering Plant RC NA
When did it happen? Q1 2020
How many or much quantity? $ 1.30 CPU
What is the standard that was violated? $ 0.133 CPU

• Qty + Units + defect/issue + occurrence location + when did it happen

Step 2- Analyze the Root Cause
ā€œDRiV: Confidentialā€ 15
• Examine the Point of Occurrence and think of possible
causes without prejudice
• Gather facts through GENCHI GENBUTSU and keep
asking ā€œWhy?ā€
• Specify the root cause
Step 2.
Analyze the
Root cause
Step 1 -
Clarify the Problem
•Clarify the Current Situation and Current Standard(Ideal
Situation) of your work
•Visualize the gap between the Current Situation and the
Current Standard(Ideal Situation)
•Determine the impact
– the WHY THIS IS IMPORTANTT
16
Root Cause Brain Storming
Without any prejudice:
• Utilize your experiences and intuition as a reference when you make
considerations.
• Do not make decisions based solely on experiences and intuition without
thinking deeply.
• Make determinations based on facts.
•While listening to others clarify whether you are hearing an opinion or
actual facts
Examine the Prioritized Problem at the Point of Occurrence and
determine possible causes without prejudice

Building a Problem Solving Culture
Break the stereotype that ā€œhaving a problem is troubleā€
TBS view problems as opportunities
When team members detect problems:
Do not blame team members
Appreciate team members
ā€œHard on the process, easy on the peopleā€

  • #3: A3 Problem Solving Methods Define Analyze Implement and Verify
  • #6: Wiki definition=- A3 problem solving is a structured problem-solving and continuous-improvement approach, first employed at Toyota and typically used by lean manufacturing practitioners.[1] It provides a simple and strict procedure that guides problem solving by workers. The approach typically uses a single sheet of ISO A3-size paper, which is the source of its name

  • #20: 5 Whys can be more or less than 5 steps They can also have multiple legs
  • #21: Review slide Key Points: Based on facts hypothesize the most likely direct cause (1st why) of the problem to tackle Confirm the facts of the possible causes at worksite through Go and See. Continue to question ā€œWhy?ā€ Ask the next ā€œWhyā€, when the initial cause has been confirmed by facts.

  • #27: This slide’s intention is to give an overview of step 4. Walk through process. KEY POINTS: As you go down on the why’s must confirm with facts…if cannot confirm with facts you stop. It is not always that obvious. Some trainers make it look like the 5 Whys are straight forward and root cause found on a linear path and can be completed in very short time. The fact is that it may take you some time to do it. Each potential cause could have a sub-set of causes. Go See – involve the people performing the process or working in the area. Prove out the ā€œwhyā€. Is it a fact? (don’t let your prejudice affect you)
