Ishikawa (Mind Map)  

Ishikawa (Mind Map)

Qualica does not implement the fishbone diagram for ishikawa. Instead a Mind Map is used to edit the problem statement, influences, hypotheses, and analyses.

  1. 1
    Start your Ishikawa Analysis by entering the problem statement into the dark grey root box of the mind map.
  2. 2
    In case the problem can be divided into several sections, you may use the main menu, the right-click-menu or Ctrl+Return to insert sub items.
  3. 3
    You can add the "6M" groups to any item in the mindmap:
    • Activate the Home menu
    • Choose Insert Group Headers - 6M from the extended insert menu
    • Insert 6M
  4. 4
    Add possible influences as sub items of the 6 groups using the insert menu or Ctrl+Return
  5. 5
    By using Insert Hypotheses from the Insert menu you may add hypotheses to your influencing factors.
  6. 6
    New Analyses from the Insert menu will add an analysis to a hypothesis.
