DESCRIPTION
 

The 8D Problem Solving Training Presentation is a facilitation‑ready deck designed to teach teams the Eight Disciplines (8D) methodology for structured problem solving.

​

Originally developed by Ford Motor Company, the 8D approach is widely used in manufacturing, engineering, and service industries to address recurring problems, eliminate root causes, and prevent reoccurrence.

​

This 8D Problem Solving Training Presentation (Lean & Quality PPT) provides step‑by‑step guidance on applying the 8D process, supported by practical examples and templates.

Note: This training package includes:

1. 8D Problem Solving PPT training presentation (PowerPoint)

2. 8D Problem Solving Report Template (PowerPoint)

3. 8D Report Worksheet (Word)

4. 8D Is/Is Not Worksheet (Excel)

5. FMEA Form (Excel)

6. 8D Problem Solving poster (PDF, in color and monochrome, printable in A3/A4 size paper)

​​
