Utilising pertinent data and metrics, measure (M) the process's current status. In order to quantify the issue and establish a baseline, data collection is necessary.
Analyse (A): Examine the information to find the source of the issue. To identify the sources of variation, methods include statistical analysis, process mapping, and cause-and-effect diagrams.
Improve (I): Create and put into action solutions to address the root problems when they have been discovered. The intention is to implement modifications that will significantly enhance the procedure.
Control (C): Put in place control measures to make sure the upgraded process is stable and continues to meet performance requirements. To avoid regression, put monitoring and response procedures into action.
