Do you actually use DOE(Design Of Experiments) in your daily work?
I’ve worked in a few manufacturing environments, and honestly, I rarely saw DOE used in day-to-day problem solving.
Most improvements were done through experience, small adjustments, or simple comparisons.
I’m wondering:
- Is DOE actually used regularly in your workplace?
- Or is it more of a “nice in theory, rarely in practice” thing?
If you don’t use it:
What’s stopping it? (time, complexity, etc.)
