Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA)

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a systematic, proactive approach used to identify potential failure modes within a product or process and assess their impact on performance and safety. By evaluating the severity, occurrence, and detection of these failure modes, FMEA facilitates prioritized risk management and informs design improvements. This analytical tool enhances product reliability and quality by enabling teams to address vulnerabilities early in the design and production phases.
