Uncover, Analyze, Excel: Elevate Your Pharma Journey with RCA Expertise
The Advanced Root Cause Analysis for Pharmaceuticals Masterclass is a comprehensive and transformative course designed to equip professionals with the skills and knowledge needed to identify the underlying causes of problems and drive business improvement. Over two days, participants will learn a structured approach to RCA, enabling them to uncover systemic causes rather than solely attributing issues to human error.
On Day 1, the training covers the essential steps of RCA, including problem definition, problem history, possible causes, linking to root causes, and preventive/mitigating actions. Participants will learn how to define problems accurately, analyze historical data, identify root causes, and implement preventive actions. They will also gain insights into challenges associated with RCA, such as information availability, multiple causes, and investigator knowledge.
Day 2 focuses on RCA tools, providing participants with a range of techniques to enhance problem-solving capabilities. Tools covered include the Five "Why?"s method, brainstorming, Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), fault tree analysis, causal factor tree analysis, Ishikawa diagrams (The Six Ms), barrier analysis, Pareto analysis, change analysis, process maps, and the Is/is not technique. Through practical exercises and case studies, participants will gain proficiency in using these tools to uncover complex issues and drive sustainable improvements.
By the end of the training, participants will possess a comprehensive toolkit of RCA methodologies and techniques. They will be equipped to drive continuous improvement, ensure regulatory compliance, and unlock operational excellence in the pharmaceutical industry.
