English term or phrase: root cause analysis

Definition from Lean Affiliates:
A process improvement and error or defect prevention tool that examines the individual processes within a system, identifies the control or decision points, and uses a series of why? questions to determine the reasons for variations in the process paths.

Example sentence(s):

In normal chaotic organizational environments it is often quite difficult to find candidates for root cause analysis because the situations which repeat are either distributed over time so one doesn't realize they are actually recurring, or the situation happens to different people so there isn't an awareness of the recurring nature of the situation. systems-thinking.org
On receipt of initial notification, the department will provide the hospital with a sentinel event reference number to be indicated on the root cause analysis, risk reduction action plan summary and other correspondence about the episode. Victorian State Government - Health
Root cause analysis (RCA) is a methodology for finding and correcting the most important reasons for performance problems. It differs from troubleshooting and problem-solving in that these disciplines typically seek solutions to specific difficulties, whereas RCA is directed at underlying issues. bill-wilson.net

Galveno cēloņu analīze

Definition from Wikipedia (English):
Galveno cēļoņu analīze balstās uz pārliecību, ka problēmu vislabāk var atrisināt, novēršot tās galvenos cēloņus nevis tikai cīnoties ar acīmredzamām un akūtām sekām.

Example sentence(s):

Pakalpojumu nodrošināšanā, HP OpenView TeMIP 5.2 piedāvā labāku tīkla pārvaldību, sākot ar galveno cēloņu analīzi, līdz pat maršrutēšanas protokoliem, starpgadījumu automātisku atklāšanu, pakalpojumu ietekmes analīzi, problēmas atrisināšanu un veiktspējas pārvaldību. - HP

Explanation:
Sastopami arī citi tulkojumi, piemēram, pamatcēloņu analīze, sākotnējo cēloņu analīze, iemeslu-seku analīze. Ja pret pirmo variantu nebūtu nekas daudz iebilstams, tad otrais nepamatoti sašaurina cēloņu analīzi laika dimensijā, savukārt, trešais, manuprāt, ir vienkārši nepareizs - sekas šajā angļu terminā nav minētas.
