Root Cause Analysis (RCA)
Root Cause Analysis can be termed as a class of problem solving methods aimed at identifying the root cause of problems or incidents. It is considered as one of the most important processes aimed at knowing the root cause of equipment failure. Through RCA we come to know the real problem and on the basis of which an attempt to correct or eliminate root cause can be found out. Thus, RCA is a useful service in this regard as it helps trace the root cause of equipment malfunction in a step-by-step method & prevents reoccurrence of failure.
