Root cause analysis software - Off the shelf software to guide Corrective Action team

[BRoyal]

My management has expressed an interest in off-the-shelf root cause analysis software that would guide corrective action teams and provide an easy way to collect data and document the process.

Has anyone had any experience with such software? Would appreciate your thoughts on its effectiveness, ease of use, etc.

Thank you.

I have an 8d Access 2000 database I could send that might work for you if you have personnel that know the software.

That's the way to go. With something 'home grown' which uses a database like access, you can tailor it to another company easily - and you don't have to buy the latest update a least once a year.

I'm not sure who has canned 8-D software right now. Maybe one of the other folks who visit the forums uses a canned 8-D product they can tell us about.

The database is now in the FTP section of the forum.

Look for:

JT CA PA.mdb

Hi again,

I'd be interested in the Access 97 version.

I'm close to creating my own but I'm relatively new to Access and having some difficulty. My #1 hurdle is the difference between two (2) dates excluding weekends and holidays. I'm sure this will be a great help.

thanks in advance,

We use AQUA software from OMNEX.

We use a lotus notes base software from QSI which we customized to our need. It includes electronic approval, e-mail notification and escalation when dates are past due. Works great.
