Ausgangssituation

Maintenance staff at various production sites used problem-solving tools such as Ishikawa, 5Why and fault analysis to varying degrees and with varying levels of quality when compiling an 8D report. There was a lack of uniform standards for structured root cause analysis, as well as clear guidelines for the documentation and application of these methods in the event of a fault.

Herausforderung

The challenge lay in the wide variation in the maintenance staff’s methodological knowledge, as well as the intense time pressure when plant malfunctions occurred. As a result, problem-solving tools were often applied incompletely or inconsistently. Furthermore, the diversity of plant types and fault patterns made it difficult to adopt a consistently standardised approach.

Lösungsansatz

Assessment of the current skill levels of all maintenance staff

Definition of a common standard for structured root cause analysis

Development of practical training modules, including real-life fault scenarios

On-the-job training for direct application on the production line

Introduction of mandatory analysis templates for recurring types of problems
