Cause – Effect Diagram

Cause & Effect Analysis - What is it for?

Useful way of mapping the causes of problems

The causes of the problem (or effect) are systematically identified by using a ‘fishbone’ diagram

Fishbone diagram uses why-why analysis to identify possible causes

Steps for Fishbone Diagram

Start drawing Diagram

Identify Main ‘Bones’

IdentifyCauses

Add lower-level causes

Define keyeffect

Check logic& completeness

Prioritiseand plan

Benefits of Cause – Effect Analysis• The technique generates structured lists of potential causes of problems

• The structure approach helps a team to be systematic in their generation of ideas and categorisation of the type of causation

• The diagrammatic format also helps to present the result to others

• The generated lists of causes provide a good input for prioritisation tools or for further data collection e.g. customer surveys etc. to prove the link between cause and effect
