ITPEC IP April 2018 Question 40
ITPEC IP April 2018 — Question 40 of 100
After the execution plan is developed, PDCA proceeds A → B → C: implement the measures, evaluate their effectiveness, and take corrective action. These correspond respectively to Do, Check, and Act, after which the improved results feed the next planning cycle.
Answer (a)
Why not others:
- corrective action should follow measurement and evaluation, not precede them
- effectiveness cannot be evaluated meaningfully before planned measures are implemented
- the other sequences reverse the dependencies among Do, Check, and Act
Key rule: PDCA follows Plan → Do → Check → Act and then repeats for continual improvement.
