The key to a good root cause analysis is truly understanding it. Root cause analysis (RCA) is an analysis process that helps you and your team find the root cause of an issue. RCA can be used to investigate and correct the root causes of repetitive incidents, major accidents, human errors, quality problems, equipment failures, production issues, manufacturing mistakes, and can even be used proactively to identify potential issues.
