FAILURE MODE AND EFFECT ANALYSIS<br />
(FMEA)<br />
RATIONALE<br />
Globalisation, intense competition and rapid technology advancement<br />
contribute to the increased in customer demand to produce better<br />
quality products and services. Therefore, Failure Mode and Effect<br />
Analysis (FMEA) is developed to help organisation to analyse potential<br />
reliability problem, identify and counter weak points in the early<br />
conception phase of product and process design.<br />
FMEA is a systematic approach that identifies potential failure modes in<br />
a system, product or manufacturing/assembly operation caused either<br />
by design failure or manufacturing /assembly process deficiencies.<br />
FMEA helps to identify critical or significant design or process<br />
characteristics that require special controls to prevent or detect failure<br />
modes. Since reliability, consistency and predictability play a major<br />
role in the world of quality, eliminating failure modes will ensure and<br />
improve the reliability of the products.<br />
OBJECTIVES<br />
At the end of the programme, the participants should be able to:<br />
• Understand the concept, philosophy, objectives and benefits of<br />
using FMEA<br />
• Understand the methodology to develop, design and prepare<br />
FMEA<br />
• Identify the steps taken in developing and implementing FMEA
