- Day 1:The course illustrates the Mistake Proofing system and the application of tools and techniques to prevent mistakes from becoming defects in the operational activities. The selection and acquisition of the use of various mistake proofing methods in different work situation and environment. The various topics covered are as follows:8
- Day 2:It describes the supporting team problem solving skills (which makes almost all of the tools effective) with effective tools like the Pareto Analysis, the Cause and Effect Diagram etc. This also illustrates the six classic problem-solving steps and guidelines for brainstorming the remedial solutions. With the Process Flow charts, it highlights on the improvement steps that need to follow with Plan-Do-Check-Act approach improvement cycles. The participants will also understand the concept of the New Quality Management tools namely, Affinity diagram, Tree diagram, Interrelationship digraph (I.D), Prioritisation matrices and FMEA applications. The selection and acquisition of the use of various mistake proofing methods in different work situation and environment. The various topics covered with case studies / illustrations are as follows:8
