These complex problems end up costing companies millions of dollars every day. Existing problem-solving techniques are only effective to a certain point. This book provides a solution to a myriad of industrial problems by using first principles and rigorous hypothesis testing. Key topics covered within the work include: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to use the latest research, advanced modeling, big data mining, analytical testing, and many other techniques to systematically create and test hypotheses surrounding why a process is malfunctioning\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHow to use scenario development to frame a team's understanding of why a process is malfunctioning\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHow to approach today's lack of experienced industrial workers, whose failure to approach probl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.
