Stop Guessing.
Solve It for Good.
Origin Problem Solving™ is the practical 8-step method that moves your team from chaos to clear root causes and fixes that stay fixed.
Clarity
Stop the arguing. Define the problem with a clear target, actual data, and the gap.
Cause
No more guessing. Verify true root cause with evidence before you ever spend a dime.
Control
Hold the gains. Implement and audit standard work so the fix actually stays fixed.
The 8-Step Method
Origin Thinking™ is a loop, not a line. It connects the problem to the standard.
- Define the problem (who, what, where, when, why).
- Set Target, actual, and gap.
- Break Down the work, go and see.
- Identify the Point of Cause location.
- Verify true root cause with data.
- Action: Test countermeasures quickly.
- Monitor results for effectiveness.
- Standardize success. Audit and scale.
