How can a problem be solved just by looking at the processes?
Question 1 of 10
Problem-Solving: A Systematic Approach
Correct!
How can a problem be solved just by looking at the processes?
Correct Answer
If you want to make more profit off of the product you make, you will want to look at the process steps to see if there is a way to take fewer steps or use less expensive materials.

What is the core principle of process problem-solving?
Question 1 of 10
Problem-Solving: A Systematic Approach
Correct!
What is the core principle of process problem-solving?
Correct Answer
Your manufacturing problem is the difference between your production numbers now and your goal to increase that number next year by 10%. At the core of this problem is finding the root cause that contributes to the gap between what you have now and what you want next year.

Which is easier, improving the current process or creating a new process?
Question 1 of 10
Problem-Solving: A Systematic Approach
Correct!
Which is easier, improving the current process or creating a new process?
Correct Answer
It depends.
It seems logical that a small change in the steps of a manufacturing process will fix the problem. But that's not necessarily true. Remember that Coca-Cola tweaked its original receipe a little bit and it backfired horribly.

Problem-Solving: A Systematic Approach
Correct!
Does starting from scratch by creating a new process ever work?
Correct Answer
Yes
Some problems, especially computer code problems, can often be made worse by trying to improve a process just a bit. One small process (code) change may alter more than expected.
