Toolbox EN

The document provides an overview of the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) toolbox used for process improvement projects. It lists common tools under each step of DMAIC - Define includes tools like problem statements, SIPOC diagrams, and business cases. Measure includes tools like fishbone diagrams, process maps, and data collection plans. Analyze includes tools like Pareto charts, hypothesis testing, and design of experiments. Improve includes tools like brainstorming, 5S, and implementation plans. Control includes tools like control charts, PDCA, and RASCI charts. The toolbox is meant to help users systematically apply the right tools at each stage of a process improvement project.
