On the one hand, I like learning about Root Cause Analysis training when I do my OSHA training. Enough that I thought, "That'd be a cool job, probably."
And then I remembered Root Cause Analysis is what you do when there's been a workplace accident, and then I thought of the fact I work in high voltage. And then I thought about the sort of photos or injuries I'd have to view and.
I'm good. I'm good where I'm at. Very happy. Don't need to see a medium rare human arm.

i forget if i’ve posted about this before. stop me
blameless postmortem culture has a lot to offer, but other people explain that plenty. here’s the catch: it only works if these two conditions are met:
1. everyone involved is doing their earnest best (or at least, meeting the effort expectations agreed in the team)
2. everyone involved is working toward the same set of goals
if either of these conditions is not met, you have a problem. if the root cause boils down to “jimmy didn’t want to deal with it so he didn’t”, unfortunately that’s a people problem. you may be able to engineer it a little bit, but you can never really prevent it.
if the root cause is “someone or some team was working toward a different goal from the rest of us”, that’s either a communication problem (benign) or a people problem (malicious). in the benign case you can engineer better communication models and depend on people Doing Their Best to prevent the problem. in the malicious case, you can attempt to limit the impact of a trusted adversary…but generally at great cost to productivity, which really means the adversary wins anyways.
now that i’m looking at it, this really condenses down to just one idea, since you could say that doing your best toward a counterproductive goal on purpose is simply not doing your best in context. but yeah. if your RCA reaches “so and so chose to do y instead of x” and the next “why” comes up with “because they don’t care about the success of the project”, you really can’t engineer that away.

Get In Control Of Your Assets Using Bad Actor Defect Analysis (BADA), Taproot & Quality Software.
Gaining control over your assets will enable you to maximise their quality, availability, and dependability, which will result in the best possible costs, outputs, and productivity.
You can take control of your assets in a number of ways, but one of the most well-known is through efficient maintenance.
An "in control" maintenance department oversees optimal maintenance strategies developed for the entire operation in addition to fixing machines.
Being 'in control' requires planning, insight, and a thorough comprehension of the requirements of the entire operation. Being able to accomplish this is dependent on two crucial actions, which are as follows:
Identifying any signs of defects as quickly as possible.
Using a comprehensive investigation technique to examine defects and then ensuring that a proactive maintenance strategy adjustment results.
A good way of doing this is to combine Bad Actor Defect Analysis (BADA) with Taproot Investigation techniques and quality software products.
BADA helps identify problematic equipment and processes, while Taproot investigations uncover root causes of issues.
The combined approach enables targeted solutions, predictive maintenance, and optimized resource allocation.
There are several steps involved with implementing this integrated method, including data collection, bad actor identification, and action plan development.
There are many benefits for taking on this approach, such as reduced downtime, cost savings, and enhanced safety.
There are a few quality software solutions can be adapted to support the BADA-Taproot process and then the best results will surely come from then combining these software tools with people expertise.
The 6 main takeaways for people wishing to learn more are:
The integration of BADA and Taproot techniques provides a comprehensive approach to identify, analyze, and address recurring maintenance issues.
Implementing the BADA-Taproot method can lead to significant improvements in asset reliability, cost reduction, safety performance, and overall operational efficiency.
The process involves systematic steps, including data collection, bad actor identification, root cause analysis, and action plan development.
Existing software solutions can be adapted to support and streamline the BADA-Taproot approach, enhancing its effectiveness and efficiency.
The combined method promotes a shift from reactive to proactive maintenance strategies, fostering a culture of continuous improvement.
While software tools are valuable, the most effective implementation combines these tools with the expertise and judgment of experienced maintenance professionals.
