PDCA: Applications, Products, Art & Science

PDCA (plan–do–check–act), sometimes called plan–do–check–adjust is an iterative design and management method used in business for the control and continual improvement of processes and products. It is also known as the Shewhart cycle, or the control circle/cycle. Another version of this PDCA cycle is OPDCA. The added O stands for observation or as some…
