PROCESS FAILURE MODE EFFECTS ANALYSIS (PFMEA) WITH CONTROL AND
ACTION PLANS


"Good presentation. The presenter was able to relate examples to real life situations."

Process Failure Mode and Effect Analysis is an excellent quality tool to use with any quality system. While the general benefits of Process FMEA are similar to those of Design FMEA, the specific benefit is that you will learn to use these powerful tools effectively to improve processes in your organization.
TARGET AUDIENCE   COURSE LENGTH AND COST
Anyone who might participate in a Process FMEA, including engineering, quality, manufacturing, purchasing, marketing, project management, and supplier or customer representatives.

Length: 1 day
Time: 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

Please see our public training schedule for prices, dates and locations.

WHAT’S COVERED
Process FMEA is a process design verification activity that can help avoid a minimum of 80% of process design problems before the process design is finalized. People from quality, manufacturing, engineering, purchasing or marketing will benefit from this seminar.

PROGRAM

Introduction to FMEA
  • The FMEA process within an AQP system
  • FMEA and Continuous Improvement strategies
  • System, Design and Process FMEA
  • Quality function deployment and Process FMEA
  • The benefits of Process FMEA
The FMEA Process
  • FMEA: a team effort
  • Information sources for use with a Process FMEA
  • Process mapping using a flow diagram
  • Failure mode brainstorming and evaluation
  • Cause and effect diagrams to analyze failure modes
  • Identification of current controls
  • Estimating the:
    • Severity of the potential effects
    • Occurrence rate of cause/failure mode mechanism
    • Capability of manufacturing process controls (to detect the failure mode)

  • Documenting the FMEA
Using FMEA to Improve the Process
  • Prioritizing failure modes
  • Developing recommended actions
  • Using Process FMEA to drive product design changes, manufacturing process changes and control plans
  • The Process FMEA as a living document
Writing Control Plans from FMEAs
  • Relationships between causes of process failure modes, process parameters and product characteristics
  • Using the QFD process planning matrix
  • The control plan as a living document
Writing Action Plans
  • Graphic-based reaction plans with a process and product control focus and as a data collection tool
