Define the Problem

As a process engineer, I never have to search for problems to solve.

In fact, I often have to pause and remember that we in fact do some things right, too.

Problems, though, can quickly become rather complex with a myriad of different issues and concerns. All of the sudden, I'm left wondering, "What was the original problem?"

So now this brings up another problem. The answer.

Define the problem. Develop a problem statement.
