When to use it
Use to organize supplied or explicitly brainstormed possible causes of one problem or outcome, such as late deliveries or a recurring defect, with two to six categories and zero to four causes per category. Empty categories remain open; supplied causes may belong to multiple categories. No cause is ranked or proven by its position. Not for multi-level chains of subcauses, hierarchies, taxonomies, processes, timelines, or comparisons.
