Questions To Be Answered
Who operates the process? Who is the Process Owner? What daily tasks need to change? How will the Process Owner and operator be impacted by the change? What tests were conducted to evaluate potential solutions? What criteria was used for the tests and evaluations? What changes will need to be made to implement the improvement? How will these changes impact the culture?

Questions to Be Answered
Where was the solution validated? How was the solution validated and analyzed? What were the operating conditions during testing? Was the data collection plan statistically valid? When will the proposed solution be communicated to the Process Owner and operator? What is the timeline for implementation and training? What is the cost/benefit analysis?

Questions to Be Answered
Why was the potential solution chosen? Has the solution been thoroughly tested and evaluated? Has the process been simulated with the proposed solution? Are there potential red flags with the proposed solution? How were tests conducted? Was the optimum solution simulated? Does the optimum solution reduce the variation and defect impacting the CTQ? Does the solution address the root cause of the process variation?
