Process Failure Mode Effects Analysis (PFMEA) with Control and Action Plans

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      
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.

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.
