Monday, 06:47. The phone rings before the coffee is ready. Eighty percent scrap, the production launch in five weeks, and the same hypothesis has been on the flip chart for three weeks. The book begins in this meeting and shows what was missing in the room.
It leads through the SEM analysis loop: symptom, workspace, findings, hypothesis, intervention, verification, with the context as the frame. It uses a sticking door, a damp wall, an old injection molding machine and anonymized cases from series production.
Pre-read for the Foundation level. The Practitioner and Certified Escalation Engineer levels build on it.
