Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA)

Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) is an augmentation of Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), in which the failure modes are categorized according to their urgencies, including the integrated measure of the seriousness of a failure mode and its possibility of occurrence.

At Velosi, FMEA, along with Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis, methodologies are used to review as many components, assemblies and subsystems as possible to recognize possible failure modes in a system, their causes and effects.

Benefits of FMECA:

• Identifies potential failure modes for a product or process.
• Assesses the risk associated with those failure modes.
• Ranks the issues in terms of importance.
• Detects and carries out preventive actions to address the most serious concerns.

FMECA Deliverables:

• FMECA based RCM Study and Working Sheets
