Effective defect elimination at scale

A program approach designed to solve any problem, organization wide

Cordant™ Asset Defect Elimination is a system used to identify cause and effect relationships for a defined problem, event or incident. This effective causal identification is critical to generating effective solutions and thereby solving recurring or systemic problems and eliminating defects across the enterprise. Cordant™ Asset Defect Elimination manages the process of defect/problem prioritization and analysis triggers. The tool is used to conduct analysis with a scalable depth of analysis based on severity of the problem, develop effective solutions, track progress and implement outcomes, leverage effective solutions across entire organizations where applicable.

Leverage learnings and connect to reliability strategy

Using one system to capture and manage all analysis, learnings, solutions, and implementation enables learnings to be applied to all sites and departments. This is further supported by a data model that codifies the language used for causal analysis and allows this to be tagged to specific assets while driving system cause prioritization.
