Introduction to TRIZ Level 1 course
Cause–effect chain analysis of defects, also known as CECA, is an independent analytical tool used to identify problems within a system.
Cause–effect chain analysis of defects makes it possible to create a list of functional defects and flow defects, as well as to identify the key defect. The initially observed and described cause of problems in a system is usually not its main issue. CECA makes it possible to reach the root of the problem and, as a consequence, select the most appropriate TRIZ methodology tool to solve it.
Educational objectives
In this section, you will learn:- Correct construction and structure of the cause–effect chain of defects;
- The procedure for building the chain;
- Formulation of the root defect;
- Proper use of the “OR” and “AND” operators when creating the chain structure.
Business objectives
Cause–effect chain analysis is a universal and versatile tool. In the development of product innovations, it will be used primarily to:
- Improvement of existing products;
- Simplification of systems and reduction of product costs;
- Identification and elimination of failures.
Who is the course intended for:
- Development managers and engineers;
- R&D department managers and engineers;
- 6 Sigma, Lean, QFD, and DFSS specialists;
- Strategic planning specialists;
- Engineers and technical staff;
- Startup team members;
