Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a valuable tool that allows quality issues to be discovered and addressed early on in the process. Sometimes divided into Design FMEAs and Process FMEAs, this one-day course introduces the FMEA methodology and how the spreadsheet can be tied into other quality documents such as the Control Plan.
Topics include:
- Introduction to FMEAs and the overall process
- Evaluating the potential failure modes
- Determining the consequences of each failure
- Methods of prevention and detection
- Ranking the weight of each: severity, occurrence, detection
- Calculating the RPN (risk priority number)
- Implementing corrective actions
- Sample FMEAs and practice session
This course can be made available for your entire group, and can be customized based on your needs and time constraints.
