ANSWERS:

1) What are the main differences between PROACT® V2 and PROACT® V3?

1. Ability to search RCA database of published analyses for answers to "HOW CAN?" questions within the Logic Tree - Knowledge Sharing
   
   
2. Compressed Logic Tree structure so that trees are not near as wide and minimal white space
   
   
3. "Scale-To-Fit" printing of Logic Tree
   
   
4. "Grab" feature allows the tree to be moved much more easily when presenting to management
   
   
5. Integration with LEAP FMEA /Opportunity Analysis software
   
   
6. Capturing of man-hours and related RCA expenses to create ROI information for analyses
   
   
7. ANALYSIS-AT-A-GLANCE reports for management to oversee the status of analyses
   
   
8. Ability to contrast PROCESS FLOW DIAGRAMS between what was designed, what actually occurred and what the modified process will look like
   
   
9. Development of a dynamic RCA Knowledge Base that will allow the others in the company to benefit from past analyses, so that they will not have to solve the same event over and over again
   
   
10. Complete re-write has allowed the development of a much more intuitive and efficient program

6) Is training available for The PROACT® Suite?

Yes, software training is available on these programs either at RCI or on-site. Training in RCI's RCA Methods is highly recommended as well. Without RCA training, it would be like having copy of Microsoft WORD and not know how to construct a sentence! The PROACT® Suite only models an investigative methodology. This fundamental understanding of the investigative makes using the software easier.

7) If I am a current PROACT® V2 Enterprise licensee, will I get the new version of PROACT®?

Current PROACT® Enterprise Licensees who are in good standing with their Maintenance Agreements are entitled to the new version of PROACT® RCA V3. This will not include the LEAP module, as this requires a separate license.
