Root Cause Analysis: Smarter Tools for Better Accuracy & Speed

Review the goals, benefits, and processes for root cause analysis and look at “smarter” tools consistent with the FDA’s New Era Blueprint that enable quality and safety teams to arrive at the root cause quicker - and prevent recurrence of problems.
For years, root cause analysis in F&B facilities has been performed with tools like the 5 Whys, Cause Mapping, and DMAIC Methodology. Now, with the launch of new procedural & traceability requirements in the FDA’s New Era Blueprint, many facilities are rushing to implement faster, more advanced, accurate, and standardized methodologies for root cause analysis.
The Blueprint’s 2nd Core Element calls for “Smarter Tools and Approaches for Prevention.” But which tools are the FDA alluding to as “smarter,” and how do they enable production, food safety, and quality teams to get to the root cause quicker and prevent the recurrence of problems?
