Root Cause Tree Diagram contains the main problem on the top, from the top depart two branches of causes, which then diverge on additional causes, thus is constructed the hierarchy of root causes. So, the step by step defining of causes lets to detect the main reasons of a given effect and to make the correct arrangements to solve a problem. The ConceptDraw MINDMAP and ConceptDraw DIAGRAM products included to ConceptDraw Office suite, with help of Business Productivity solutions from the ConceptDraw Solution Park are effective in questions of problem solving, defining root causes of various problems, root causes analysis and designing the Root Cause Tree Diagrams.
