Introduction

There is an increasing awareness that problem solving skill among employees is an important and essential critical skill for company success and to remain viable in today’s very competitive environment.

The 8-Discipline problem-solving methodology (also called “8 Step Plan” or TOPS – “Team Oriented Problem – Solving”) is a structured procedure use to arrive at the root cause of a problem.

The workforce’s improved capability to 8D Method problem solving is a necessary requirement in Zero Defect (ZD), 6 Sigma, FMEA, IATF/TS 16949, ISO 9001, TQM and Lean Manufacturing.
