Abstract
Dr. Kaoru Ishikawa was first total quality management guru, who has been associated with the development
and advocacy of using the seven quality control (QC) tools in the organizations for problem solving and process

have the significant roles to monitor, obtain, analyze data for detecting and solving the problems of production
processes, in order to facilitate the achievement of performance excellence in the organizations.

Introduction
There are seven basic quality tools, which can assist an organization for problem solving and process improvements.
The first guru who proposed seven basic tools was Dr. Kaoru
Ishikawa in 1968, by publishing a book entitled “Gemba no QC Shuho” that was concerned managing quality
through techniques and practices for Japanese firms. It was intended to be applied for “self-study, training of
employees by foremen or in QC reading groups in Japan. It is in this book that the seven basic quality control
tools were first proposed. valuable resource when applying the seven basic tools (Omachonu and Ross, 2004).
These seven basic quality control tools, which introduced by Dr. Ishikawa, are: 1) Check sheets; 2) Graphs
(Trend Analysis); 3) Histograms; 4) Pareto charts; 5) Cause-and-effect diagrams; 6) Scatter diagrams; 7) Control
charts. Figure 1 indicates the relationships among these seven tools and their utilizations for the identification and
analysis of improvement of quality (Kerzner, 2009).
