ARMS Reliability Engineers specialize in the training and facilitation of Apollo Root Cause Analysis in Australia. The unique Apollo process is a universal problem solving methodology. It is used successfully by thousands of people from a wide variety of industries such as aerospace, petro-chemical, utilities, manufacturing, telecommunications and healthcare.

In every endeavor, success depends directly upon our ability to solve problems. Some people are better at solving problems than others. What is the difference? Successful problem solvers identify solutions that control one or more of the causes of the problem. Problems are nothing more (or less) than systems of cause and effect relationships. We have found that training people to use the universal Apollo problem-solving methodology helps them understand the way causes interrelate. Identifying cause and effect relationships makes finding solutions easier and more effective.

The Apollo process is a 4-step method for facilitating a thorough incident investigation.

The steps are:

Problem solving is generally understood to mean overcoming some kind of difficulty, but with Apollo Root Cause Analysis, you will see it is about controlling causes. The best solutions are often the unseen ones. This learning is backed up with use of the powerful software tool RealityCharting

We call these creative solutions because they are seemingly created from inside our minds. However, like the sculptor's notion that the statue lies within the stone, many effective solutions are waiting to be revealed within an infinite set of causes. To discover them requires the courage to leave old belief systems behind.
