Improve product quality with the use of Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA)
FMEA improves quality, productivity and safety while providing a means for reviewing product and process designs and ensuring regulatory compliance. With knowledge-driven design FMEAs that leverage corporate standards and lessons learned and link design inputs, design FMEAs, design verification and gage plans, an organization can manage critical characteristics across the quality lifecycle. Ensuring that Process FMEAs and Control Plans are linked will help you manage the entire quality lifecycle process for your APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning) and DFSS (Design for Six Sigma) efforts, and will provide corporate consistency and assist with compliance with industry and company standards.
Dyadem's Solution for FMEA
Dyadem solutions remove the barriers to achieving continuous improvement and world class execution in manufacturing quality planning. Dyadem Stature ensures that you develop a robust knowledge base, allowing good design decisions that are, in effect, validated by prior quality planning efforts. Where there is uncertainty, tests can be defined and linked, allowing full traceability from requirements to design FMEA to design verification. When design or process changes are being implemented, they can be analyzed through design review by failure mode (DRBFM) and design review by test results (DRBTR) activities, with the results again being linked and traceable back to the design FMEA and other related quality planning documents. Stature turns your FMEAs from paperwork into the core background of your quality engineering efforts.
