Managing An Effective FMEA Process
Course Overview

Failure Mode & Effects Analysis (FMEA/FMECA) is a powerful tool to support achievement of highly reliable product and process designs. Training the FMEA teams and doing a good job in performing individual FMEAs is important, but not sufficient to maximize the potential of the FMEA tool. Proper support from management is essential to FMEA success. However, management needs to know specifically what support is needed and how to provide that support.

This one-day course provides an overview of what managers need to know and do in order to bring about an effective FMEA process.
