FMEA

Fail­ure Modes and Effects Analy­sis, abbre­vi­at­ed FMEA, is a struc­tured approach for iden­ti­fy­ing the ways that a prod­uct or process can fail, what caus­es the fail­ure, and how this affects the cus­tomer. Learn how to apply FMEA to improv­ing the safe­ty, reli­a­bil­i­ty, and per­for­mance of process­es, prod­ucts, and services.

Fail­ure Mode and Effects Analy­sis, or FMEA, is a method for eval­u­at­ing poten­tial tech­ni­cal risks of fail­ures for prod­ucts or process­es. Learn why the AIAG & VDA orga­ni­za­tions made major updates to the FMEA approach, the eight major changes to this approach, and how it helps orga­ni­za­tions in the auto­mo­tive indus­try become more effec­tive at risk management.
