FMEA workshop moderation
Structured and efficient workshops that help your team to identify and to eliminate potential failures at an early stage of project.
According the seven steps of AIAG/VDA FMEA 2019 guideline we analyze technical risks in your products and processes. We create a graphical structure of your product/process, determine the corresponding functions and thereout we derive potential failures. We link these logically across at least three levels and thus carry out an analysis of functional and failure relationships. Then we finally get to the core of the FMEA work. We identify measures to avoid failure causes and/or measures to check or test them.
In many cases, even experienced developers gain new insights into problems that were often previously unforseen.
With the experience of several hundred FMEA moderations since end of 2002, I lead routine and targeted discussion rounds on failure analysis - mainly preventively. Fortunately, I have the ability to work in failure models. In this way, I succeed in filtering out the core of what is said in team discussions and work out possible reasons for deviations according target specifications by asking suitable questions. Due to little experience in methods, many engineers already fail to choose the right focus on the relevant failure levels.
Through the structured application of the Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) in product and process development, I succeed in generating a benefit of the method for my customers and thus real added value.
