Uses of FMEA
- Development of system requirements that minimize the likelihood of failures.
- Development of methods to design and test systems to ensure that the failures have been eliminated.
- Evaluation of the requirements of the customer to ensure that those do not give rise to potential failures.
- Identification of certain design characteristics that contribute to failures, and minimize or eliminate those effects.
- Tracking and managing potential risks in the design. This helps avoid the same failures in future projects.
- Ensuring that any failure that could occur will not injure the customer or seriously impact a system.
- To produce world class quality products
