Process Maps, Flow Charts and Fives Whys
Flow charts, process maps and the five-whys tools are used in Lean
Six Sigma to analyze problems and to determine the root cause of the problem.
In your Lab Assignment, you are developing a flow chart and why-why or five-why chart around the WP Uniform problem. This discussion will help jumpstart your unit 3 lab assignment.
Remember to include a relevant subject bar and respond to the following prompts:
- Explain the steps in your flow chart.
- Identify the why questions in your why-why diagram.
- Explain why you asked these particular “why” questions.
- In your replies, state whether or not your flow chart and why-why chart questions share any similarities or differences from those of your classmates.
