Latent Cause Analysis Go-Page |
 You
will not have time to gather essential items after receiving a call to lead
a Latent Cause Analysis. Although you might have been trained in Latent
Cause Analysis, or even have lead them in the past, you will need to fall back
on a defined process, and use predetermined tools. If you do not, your
organization will be inconsistent in its approach to investigating its problems
because different people will investigate in different ways, use varying
vocabulary, and dig to different depths. Inconsistency
is a death-knoll of a Latent Cause Analysis effort.
The following items are being made available to you to help
you be consistent in your Latent Cause Analyses. With exception of the
last item (Failsafe's Recommended Practice), they are presented in the order
in which you will probably need them. The Recommended Practice is a
comprehensive reference that encapsulates all of these items.
