RCA Tools
• 5 Why's Analysis
• Fishbone Diagram
• Affinity Diagram
5 Why's Analysis
A simple tool for drilling-
down on the problem
statement until the root
cause is identified by
asking "WHY" 5 times
Countermeasure
Problem
Statement
5 Why's Analysis
TIPS:!
Avoid intentional or unintentional bias while answering!
Find the right person who can answer the 5Why's!
Use other RCA Tools if you're getting misleading answers
Countermeasure
Problem
Statement
Example of 5 Why's Analysis
Problem Statement: The pizza delivery personnel's motorbike stopped
while on his way to deliver several orders of pizza resulting to delay!
Cost Impact: All delayed pizza were given free of charge to the customers
amounting to a total of Php4,000.00
Why 1: Why did the motorbike stopped?!
Answer 1: Because it ran out of gas while on its way to deliver pizzas!
!
Why 2: Why did then gas run out?!
Answer 2: Because the delivery personnel did not gas up the motorbike that morning!
!
Why 3: Why didn't the personnel gas up the motorbike that morning?!
Answer 3: Because the personnel did not have money to buy the gas!
!
Why 4: Why did the personnel not have money to buy the gas?!
Answer 4: Because he was not able to ask money from his manager!
!
Why 5: Why was he not able to ask money from his manager?!
Answer 5: Because he came in late and was not able to find the manager!
Solution: The pizza delivery personnel should come to the office on time
or earlier to find the manager and ask for gas money before the deliveries.
Affinity Diagram
A simple tool for putting
together a big number of
detailed and inter-related
causes and group them
according to broad topics.!
!
This helps in focusing on the
bigger picture or Major root
cause. !
!
Similar to Zooming Out.
CAUSES
Major Causes
Example of Affinity Diagram 1/3
Brainstorm on
ideas about
the causes
Example of Affinity Diagram 2/3
Group inter-
related causes
Example of Affinity Diagram 3/3
Identify the
Major Causes
Fishbone Diagram
A quality tool used for
identifying the root
cause based on the
"Cause & Effect"
relationships!
!
Useful for analysis of
complex problems!
!
Grouping of causes can
be according to 5Ms
or by major causes
Example of Fishbone Diagram 1/3
State the
problem
Example of Fishbone Diagram 2/3
Define the
Major
Groups of
Causes
Example of Fishbone Diagram 3/3
Identify the
root cause(s)
Applicability of RCA Tools
• 5 Why's Analysis!
When looking at one major cause and needs drill-down to arrive at
one root cause!
•Affinity Diagram!
When looking at several inter-related and detailed causes which have
some things in common and can be grouped together to see the Major
Causes!
• Fishbone Diagram!
When looking at numerous major causes and needs drill-down probing
to arrive at numerous root causes(s) based on their Cause and Effect
Relationships
Form groups of 4 to 5 members	

Choose a problem coming from your past CPAR or SCPAR cases	

Use any of the RCA tools to identify the root cause and
recommend a Corrective and/or Preventive Action
Countermeasure	

Please ensure appropriateness of the selected RCA tool to the
difficulty or complexity of the problem
