There are seven basic quality improvement tools that circles use: Cause-and-effect diagrams (sometimes called Ishikawa or "fishbone" diagrams) Pareto charts; Process mapping, data gathering tools such as check sheets; Graphical tools such as histograms, frequency diagrams, spot charts and pie charts; Run charts and control charts
This tool is used to plan the appropriate sequence or schedule for a set of tasks and related subtasks. It is used when subtasks must occur in parallel. The diagram helps in determining the critical path (longest sequence of tasks). The purpose is to help people sequentially define, organize, and manage a complex set of activities.
Analysis: In this step, various tools for quality analysis are used. This includes Control charts, Pareto charts, cause-and-effect diagrams, scatter diagrams, and histograms. 4. Action: Based on the analysis, an action is taken. 5. Study: The results are studied to see if they conform to what was expected and to learn from what was not expected ...

For example, an "Is/Is Not" worksheet is a common tool employed at D2, and Ishikawa, or "fishbone," diagrams and "5-why analysis" are common tools employed at step D4.
