What is FMEA?
Douglas Hoffman
Page 1
Background
Analysis of failure modes, causes, and effects Aerospace in 1960s QS9000 in 1993 (automotive) Analysis per function, per failure mode RPN = Severity X Occurrence X Detectability Action/Results to reduce risk
Douglas Hoffman Copyright 2000, SQM, LLC. 3
FMEA Process
Identify Function, Failure Modes, and Cause Then Severity, Occurrence, and Detectability Compute RPN Decide cut-off Identify Mitigation methods Adjust Severity, Occurrence, or Detectability and RPN

Severity
What consequence if failure happens 1 to 10 Scale 1 means no consequence No set categories
Douglas Hoffman
Page 3
Occurrence
Likelihood the failure happens 1 to 10 Scale 1 means not likely No set categories
Douglas Hoffman
Detectability
Likelihood of missing a failure 1 to 10 Scale 1 means it will be noticed No set categories

Example
Functions
Verify credit availability
Failure Modes
Accepts over limit (OL) Rejects under limit (UL) Calls police in error (CP)
Causes
Software error (SE) Input error (IE)

Example (continued)
Severity
OL = 6 UL = 4 CP = 9
Occurrence
OL/SE = 4 OL/IE = 7 UL/SE = 4 UL/IE = 7 CP/SE = 3 CP/IE = 2
Detectability
OL/SE = 1 OL/IE = 1 UL/SE = 6 UL/IE = 6 CP/SE = 9 CP/IE = 9

Conclusions
Analysis is Good FMEA framework supports analysis Dont take it too far Be wary of statistics
