DIKA Model

 In some careers, the DIKA model is used everyday to make decisions or take actions.  The method the DIKA model is based out of is taught in different applications.  Applications like OODA Loop and Lean methods use similar strategies to determine solutions.  The DIKA model is used from everyday decisions to long-term solutions.  In military aircraft maintenance, we use the model to troubleshoot maintenance issues.  We use all the evidence that we find to get a general idea what system is having the issue.  Technical data assist the maintainers with narrowing the issue down to the sub-system or specific component.  From there, the technicians can decide if they need to repair wires, circuit cards, or replace a part.  In some circumstances, because of warranties, we may have to contact representatives from the company that manufactured the asset.  

Communication is key to the DIKA model.  People need to connect to share ideas and experiences to collect all the data before information can be extracted.  Teamwork is key if available.
