Fishbone Diagram

The use of specific types of visual diagrams is effective way to problems solving and decisions making. Fishbone diagram is a graphical tool used for visual and systematical analyzing the relationships between the solved problem and causes affecting its occurrence. It has hierarchical structure and that's why is well-suited for capturing in a mind map for a process of reviewing what branch is a real root cause of a given issue. ConceptDraw Office products and PM solutions offered by ConceptDraw STORE give the powerful help in questions of planning and project management. ConceptDraw PRO and ConceptDraw MINDMAP applications perfectly suit for designing professional-looking Fishbone Diagrams and allow effectively identify the root causes of quality issues using the Fishbone diagrams. The PM Response solution from the Project Management area of ConceptDraw Solution Park is powerful for improvement the response time to project changes, helps with iteration planning, with solving project challenges and discussing project layout approaches.

Fishbone Diagram

Fishbone diagram or Cause and Effect diagram resembles to the fish and is dedicated to representing of a single effect and multiple causes. Fishbone diagram is effective technique to determine the root causes and solve any problem or business task, identify the defects and eliminate them, detect the inefficiencies of a product or process, that's why Fishbone diagram is popular for using in business, product development, management, quality improvement, etc. It is well known that any problems begin from the head, so the first the Fishbone diagram includes the head that depicts a problem, task or question that is need to be analyzed. The bones on the fish body depict all causes, which contribute to the overall effect or a problem. Fishbone diagram is also sufficiently effective for visual organizing the causes that were defined during the brainstorming session. ConceptDraw MINDMAP application is a unique software with powerful capabilities of problem solving, holding brainstorming sessions, and drawing effective and professional-looking Fishbone diagrams.
