Critical to Quality Tree Slide for PowerPoint & Google Slides

Clarify key performance metrics and align stakeholder expectations with this Critical to Quality (CTQ) Tree slide. Based on Six Sigma and lean principles, this template breaks down a primary customer need—Ease of Operation and Maintenance—into structured drivers (Operation, Maintenance, Modification) and measurable CTQs such as MTBT, Maintenance Cost, Digital Control, and Standardization.

The slide adopts a horizontal three-column layout, progressing logically from “Need” to “Drivers” to “CTQs.” Connector lines visually map dependencies and traceability, making complex quality frameworks easy to interpret. Each element is presented in rounded rectangular containers, color-coded in subtle cyan, lavender, and blue hues against a deep navy background to enhance readability and focus.

Professionals can use this slide to facilitate process improvement discussions, quality audits, or product development sessions. Fully editable in both PowerPoint and Google Slides, it supports rapid content customization. Users can easily adapt labels, restructure branches, or insert additional nodes to suit evolving project requirements or industry-specific CTQs.
