Rever Adds Digital DMAIC Tool to Frontline Platform

DMAIC (pronounced Deh-May-Ick) is a problem-solving framework that takes teams from discovering root causes to long-term, stable standard work. The powerful five-step process is simple enough to be used by a wide range of individuals and applicable to any number of process problems.

The DMAIC consists of the following five steps:

1. Define: Describe the problems that need to be solved and for the key business decision-makers to be aligned on the goal of the project
2. Measure: Collect the relevant information to baseline the current performance of the product or the process.
3. Analyze: Identify which process inputs or parameters have the most critical effect on the outputs.
4. Improve: Identify a wide range of potential solutions before identifying the critical solutions which will give us the maximum return for our investment and directly fix the root cause we identified.
5. Control: Ensure that the new changes become business as normal and we do not revert to the same way of working as before.

Why standardize your Problem Solving on DMAIC?

• Simple and accessible for everyone. While there is some basic training required, the process is intuitive enough that it can be used by a very broad audience.
• Drive a data-driven improvement process. DMAIC drives a standardized collection of information and ensures a focus on the facts and the data associated with the problem.
• Ensure a consistent process with deep analysis. The steps of the DMAIC process help everyone to go through a comprehensive analysis of the problem, and the associate solution.
• Apply to a wide variety of problems. DMAIC can be applied to a wide range of problems which allows individuals to consistently use their skills, as well as collaborate more easily.
