This interactive practical course will provide delegates with a basic knowledge of the FMEA methodology, how to apply it to product and process design, and demonstrate how the results of the FMEA are used to define the requirements for:

• An effective product validation plan
• An effective control plan for the manufacturing process

Learning objectives include:

• Produce an FMEA
• Fit an FMEA into the overall production process design
• Communicate why the FMEA should be regularly updated
• The business need for the process FMEA
• FMEA methodology defining customers’ expectations and requirements. potential failure modes, consequence of failure and methods of detection and prevention
• Risk Priority Number (RPN)
• Evaluating the “risk” using the RPN and prioritising areas of improvement
• Implementing corrective actions in process design

Assessment is by portfolio of work.
