2. PROJECT AT ALSTOM
8D ANALYSIS of following projects:
1. Surplus Inventory at PROJECT X
2. Steel structure paint flacking at PROJECT (Y)
What is 8D ANALYSIS ?
Eight Disciplines Problem Solving (8D) is a method used to approach and to resolve problems,
typically employed by quality engineers or other professionals. Its purpose is to identify, correct
and eliminate recurring problems, and it is useful in product and process improvement. It
establishes a permanent corrective action based on statistical analysis of the problem (when
appropriate) and focuses on the origin of the problem by determining its root causes. Although it
originally comprised eight stages, or 'disciplines', it was later augmented by an initial planning
stage. The 8D follows the logic of the PDCA cycle. The disciplines are:
D1: Use a Team: Establish a team of people with product/process knowledge.
D2: Define and describe the Problem: Specify the problem by identifying in quantifiable
terms the who, what, where, when, why, how, and how many (5W2H) for the problem.
D3: Develop Interim Containment Plan; Implement and verify Interim
Actions: Define and implement containment actions to isolate the problem from any customer.
D4: Determine Identify, and Verify Root Causes and Escape Points: Identify all
applicable causes that could explain why the problem has occurred. Also identify why the
problem has not been noticed at the time it occurred. All causes shall be verified or proved, not
determined by fuzzy brainstorming. One can use five or Ishikawa diagrams to map causes
against the effect or problem identified.
D5: Choose and Verify Permanent Corrections (PCs) for Problem/Non
Conformity: Through pre-production programs quantitatively confirm that the selected
correction will resolve the problem for the customer. (Verify the correction will actually solve
the problem)
ALSTOM
Page 10
D6: Implement and Validate Corrective Actions: Define and Implement the best
corrective actions.
D7: Take Preventive Measures: Modify the management systems, operation systems,
practices, and procedures to prevent recurrence of this and all similar problems.
D8: Congratulate Your Team: Recognize the collective efforts of the team. The team
needs to be formally thanked by the organization.
8D has become a standard in the auto, assembly and other industries that
require a thorough structured problem solving process using a team
approach.

- Engineering Project management Director
- MMI Deputy Manager _Welding
- Manufacturing purchasing Manager
2.1.2 D2: PROBLEM DESCRIPTION Surplus inventory for PROJECT X (tubes and plates).
Surplus after job closing : 3.92 % of total purchase
Cost: 4,103,103 RMB
5W2H
A problem well defined is half solved
5W2H Analysis is a problem definition technique which works by asking 7 questions about a
defect or any other problem. The five W's-who, what, when, where, and why, and the two H's-
how and how much - force you to consider various facets of the situation being analyzed.
WHY : Why is it important to improve this process?
WHO : Who is affected by the problem?
Who is interested in solving the problem/ or improving the process?
WHERE : Where is the problem located?
WHEN : When does the problem happen?
WHAT : What is a defect?
HOW : How was the problem identified?
HOW MANY : How many defects, units, or people?
ALSTOM
Page 12
5W2H WHY : Over-estimated.
Purchase more than planned.
The materials blocks new projects from using the storage/work area while its
value diminishes as it waits for an opportunity to be used which is not guaranteed
WHO : Project management, manufacturing process, welding engg., purchasing engg.
WHERE : Warehouses
WHEN : After closing of project
WHAT : For PROJECT X, 3.92% of total purchase
HOW : Project management group gets to be informed by surplus material report about
the quantity of material left
HOW MANY : 2% can be afforded unless and until we have multi-unit project
PARETO DIAGRAM
A technique used for decision making based on the Pareto Principle, known as the 80/20 rule. It
is a decision-making technique that statistically separates a limited number of input factors as
having the greatest impact on an outcome, either desirable or undesirable. Pareto analysis is
based on the idea that 80% of a project's benefit can be achieved by doing 20% of the work or
conversely 80% of problems are traced to 20% of the causes.

2.1.3 D3: CONTAINMENT ACTIONS
What is containment Actions? The goal of containment actions is to define the problem extent and try to limit it. Problem
effects have to be restrained and prompt action is important. In quality deviations our first
response should be to protect the customer. Containment actions are a “first aid” that protects the
customer from the problem until we define the root cause and implement permanent corrective
actions.

Following containment actions were taken by the team and achieved the success
mentioned in the given table:

2.1.4 D4: IDENTIFIED ROOT CAUSES
Bill of Material (BOM) calculation is not too accurate.
Action to check the root cause:
Establishing investigation team, preparing action plan, investigating to collect information to
confirm the root causes.
What is BOM (Bill of Material)?
A Bill of materials (sometimes bill of material or BOM) is a list of the raw materials, sub-
assemblies, intermediate assemblies, sub-components, parts and the quantities of each needed to
manufacture an end product. A BOM can define products as they are designed (engineering bill
of materials), as they are ordered (sales bill of materials), as they are built (manufacturing bill of
materials), or as they are maintained (service bill of materials). The different types of BOMs
depend on the business need and use for which they are intended. In process industries, the BOM
is also known as the formula, recipe, or ingredients list. In electronics, the BOM represents the
list of components used on the printed wiring board or printed circuit board. Once the design of
the circuit is completed, the BOM list is passed on to the PCB layout engineer as well as
component engineer who will procure the components required for the design.

CAUSE & EFFECT DIAGRAM
One of the seven tools of quality, it shows the relationship of all factors (causes) that lead to the
given situation (effect). It identifies major causes and breaks them down into sub-causes and
further sub-divisions (if any). It is usually preceded by cause-and-effect analysis
Cause & Effect diagram is a visualization tool for categorizing the potential causes of a problem
in order to identify its root causes. A visual tool used to organize possible factors that contribute
to a certain event or problem. A fishbone diagram is an example of a cause & effect diagram.
Cause & effect diagrams are sometimes referred to as "fish bone" diagrams because they
resemble a fish skeleton, with the "ribs" representing the causes of an event and the final
outcome appearing at the head of the skeleton.

2.1.5 D5: PERMANENT CORRECTIVE ACTION
What are corrective actions?
A plan created by management to address a non-conformance. Corrective actions leads to
company improvement Corrective actions are implemented in response to customer complaints,
unacceptable levels of product non-conformance, issues identified during an internal audit.
Following CORRECTIVE ACTION is taken by the team:
Investigation result replied to Windsor and Top management.
For the first 1000MW supercritical project, Surplus/Purchase Ratio 3.92% may be acceptable,
the appropriate margin is necessary to reduce risk in project executing. The following projects
shall be considered to confirm the less margin base on the previous experience.
ALSTOM
Page 17
2.1.6 D6: EFFECTIVENESS OF CORRECTIVE ACTIONS
The effectiveness of corrective action shall be verified in the following projects, such as
PROJECT X1, PROJECT X3.
CORRECTIVE ACTION SUGGESTED BY US
Selling of surplus:
1. If surplus material is not to be used in other projects then it can be sold even at lower
price to the suppliers itself.
2. It can help to vacate the storage space for future projects.
3. It can eliminate the maintenance cost.
4. It can maintain the liquidity of money.
2.1.7 D7: PREVENTIVE MEASURES SUGGESTED BY US
1. Experienced workforce
• BOM preparation team should be technically experienced
• Team heads should have expertise in BOM
• Checklists should be followed
Bill of material team should have experts an there should be various checklists to ensure that
the expediting bill of material is correct or does not have any incorrect data.
2. Forecasting Following facts should be known before BOM:
Effectiveness of labour
Amount of scrap and wastage
Thus we can say that if effectiveness of labour is known then we come to know how much
will be the amount of scrap and wastage and the amount of raw material they need for
practice , so that we can take margin according to that and can order accordingly.
3. Periodic system of inventory can be implemented
• According to this system the ordering time period is fixed but the quantity can be varied
• No. of orders can be varied according to requirements
ALSTOM
Page 18
The quantity to be ordered can be derived from EOQ MODEL
ECONOMIC ORDER QUANTITY
Let; D = Demand of product
Q = Quantity to be ordered at each order point
C = Purchase cost of material per unit
Co = Ordering cost
Ch = Holding cost
Total cost =purchase cost + ordering cost + holding cost
Purchase cost =D*C
No. of orders =D/Q
Ordering cost = (D/Q)*Co
ALSTOM
Page 19
Holding cost =average inventory*Ch
= (Q/2)*Ch
Total cost (TC) = ( D*C)+(D/Q)*Co+(Q/2)*Ch
Total inventory cost(T.I.C.)=ordering cost + holding cost
Differentiate total inventory cost w.r.t. Q,
We get,
Q*=√(2DCo)/Ch (economic order quantity)
T.I.C.*=√2DCoCh (min. inventory cost)
2.1.8 D8: LESSONS LEARNT, CLOSURE
1. There should be an integration of individual goal to organization goal
2. Motivational environment should be there so that effectiveness of the whole organization
can be improved
The 8D could be closed.
