Introduction to PDCA

PDCA was created by W Edwards Deming in the 1950’s as an easy to follow Problem Solving Cycle.

Deming was tasked with helping Japan rebuild its economy in the 1950’s.

His purpose was to use PDCA with a Continuous Improvement process to help rebuild Japanese industries

so that they could compete in the world market in the future.

Background

Walter Shewhart Discussed the concept of the continuous improvement cycle (Plan Do Check Act) in his 1939 book, "Statistical Method From the Viewpoint of Quality Control“

W. Edwards Deming Modified and popularized the Shewart cycle (PDCA) to what is now referred to as the Deming Cycle (Plan, Do, Study, Act).
