Stop Guessing.
Start Knowing.
Problem costs are hiding everywhere:
-
Customer: claims, returns, premium freight
-
Internal: scrap, rework, downtime
-
Supplier: disruptions and non-conformances
RootSolve connects daily problem solving directly to your targets—so improvement isn’t theoretical. It’s measurable.
How it Works
Solve Problems.
Structured, Team-Based Problem Solving
RootSolve provides a structured workflow that enables teams to:
-
Identify problems and communicate consistently
-
Investigate and determine root causes
-
Define and track corrective and preventive actions
-
Prevent recurrence for individual and related issues
No extra reporting. No side spreadsheets. Just better problem solving—built into the work.
Hit Targets.
Turn Problem Solving Data into Improvements
As teams use the system, they naturally enter in-depth data including:
-
Problem descriptions
-
Root causes
-
Categories (product line, supplier, customer, etc.)
-
Locations (plant, department, work cell, etc.)
RootSolve:
-
Collects and analyzes this data
-
Reveals systemic patterns that are invisible at the individual problem level
-
Identifies true cost drivers to prioritize focus
-
Tracks performance over time
Repeat.
Monitor the Data to Continuously Improve
Teams and executives will have visibility into the data to make systemic improvements:
-
What problems are recurring?
-
What areas need resources for improvement
-
Is our action plan strong enough?
-
What’s the ROI of our improvement efforts?
Use the data effectively to improve continuously.
See What Others Miss.
RootSolve cuts across departments, plants, and the enterprise to expose the real drivers that traditional reports can’t. Hidden problem examples include:
Plant vs. System Issues
The problem isn’t a specific plant—it’s a shared design flaw.
Customer-Driven Noise
It’s not manufacturing—it’s inconsistent customer standards.
Equipment & Maintenance Gaps
The issue isn’t the product—it’s machine calibration across plants.
Training Failures
The crisis isn’t a manufacturing defect—it’s not consistently followingwork instructions.
Product Launch Weaknesses
The root cause isn’t operations—it’s flawed development & supply planning.
