Pre-DMAIC Problem Admissibility

Classifying improvement proposals before the DMAIC cycle begins.

The Usual extension

A proposed problem statement passes through Classification, Sensitivity and Historical Consistency reviews. The third checks whether the problem contradicts an earlier success announcement. Where it does, the team prepares language that recognizes the improvement opportunity without revising the announcement's emotional condition.

Inside the process

An automated process still needs substantial manual work. Historical Consistency permits the issue to proceed as an opportunity to expand realized automation. The operational fact survives, although it has acquired a more senior vocabulary.
