Cause and Effect Diagrams
also known as a Fishbone Diagram or Ishikawa Diagram, is a tool used to identify, organize, and analyze potential causes of a problem or effect.
Cause and Effect Diagrams - B
This diagram helps project managers and teams visually display the various factors contributing to an issue, enabling them to pinpoint root causes and improve problem-solving.
Histograms
A Histogram is a type of bar chart used in quality management and project management to represent the distribution of numerical data visually with identifying patterns, variations.
Pareto Diagram
also known as a Pareto Chart, is a bar graph that visually represents the principle that a small number of causes often lead to the majority of effects.
Pareto Diagram - B
Based on the Pareto Principle (or 80/20 rule), this tool is used to prioritize problem areas, with the goal of addressing the most impactful issues first to maximize improvements in quality or performance.
Scatter Diagram
also known as a Scatter Plot, is a graph that shows the relationship between two variables.
Scatter Diagram - B
This tool helps teams visualize patterns, trends, and potential correlations, which can aid in decision-making and problem-solving.
Design for X (DFX)
is a design philosophy and set of practices used in product development and engineering to optimize a design for specific criteria
Design for X (DFX) B
where “X” represents different objectives or constraints like quality, cost, reliability, manufacturability, safety, or sustainability.
Design for X (DFX) C
DfX aims to address potential issues and enhance product performance, functionality, and lifecycle early in the design process, making it a proactive approach to design.
Control Chart
is a graphical tool used in quality management and process control to monitor the performance of a process over time.
Control Chart - B
Control charts are widely used to ensure that processes remain stable and predictable, making them valuable in manufacturing, service industries, and project management for maintaining consistent quality.
Tuckman’s Ladder
is a model that describes the stages of team development. It was developed by Bruce Tuckman in 1965 and outlines the five phases that teams typically go through as they form, develop, and work together to achieve their goals.
