Seven Basic Quality Tools

Using the Seven Basic Quality Tools in 2022: In this course, you will learn the theory behind these seven quality tools and will also learn, to take the power of these tools to the next level using the current computing power.

During the post-war industrial revolution, Kaoru Ishikawa proposed seven basic quality tools to improve quality. These seven tools were the backbone of quality improvement in Japan. All workers, supervisors and managers were taught these seven tools to solve a problem and to improve the quality.

These were initially introduced in the 1970s. These tools are still relevant even after more than 50 years. By using the power of computers and Microsoft Excel, we can use them today to solve complex problems. Many organizations today might not be collecting data using the manual check sheets (which is one of the tools in this list), but the equivalent of that could be in Excel.
