Dear Shalini ji,
The PDCA cycle is a methodology that can be adopted by anyone, not only in any particular industry but also in our day-to-day life at home or work. This cycle of Plan, Do, Check, and Act is very important in continuous improvement. Continuous improvement is impossible without the PDCA cycle.
First, you need to plan for yourself and set your goals/objectives. Then, you need to implement the plan. After this, you need to check your progress. Following the check, you need to act. You should assess whether your goals/objectives are met and whether your issues are resolved. If not, repeat the cycle until you achieve success. If yes, start the new cycle.
I hope I have explained this methodology in simple and understandable words.

Dear Shalini ji,
Mr. Koragaonkar and Mr. Nasbramhall have provided the right perspective about the PDCA Cycle. You can visit the websites of JUSE, Japan, and ASQ to get more details. I am attaching a PPT on PDCA. I hope this will be helpful to you.

Hello Shalini,
A lot of information has been given by Mr. Simhan, Mr. Keshav Kargoankar, and Mr. Somnath Roy Choudhary. I found the list of Deming's Principles was the only missing link. PDCA had its origin in Shewhart's cycle. You may find the attachment interesting. A lucid explanation has been given describing each of Deming's Principles. The attachment is prepared by FDR Safety.
