The 5-D Cycle

The 5-D Cycle is a process used for continuous improvement and problem-solving. It involves five steps: Define the issue clearly, Diagnose the root causes, Design solutions or improvements, Develop or implement these solutions, and then Deploy or monitor the results to ensure success. This cycle helps organizations understand real problems, make targeted changes, and evaluate their effectiveness steadily. By repeating this process, teams can adapt and refine their actions, leading to ongoing progress and better outcomes over time.
