FMEA & QFD

Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) is a quality management method for reducing errors and risks that can arise during the development of products or processes and has become a must-have tool in high-risk areas. FMEA can be used in any industry. After this module, you will be able to carry out an FMEA independently on the basis of the new VDA / AIAG guidelines. The ultimate goal of an FMEA is to reduce costs through changes and consequential errors.Quality Function Deployment or House of Quality is a structured process that defines the design of the product and the underlying process with the help of customer requirements.

Key information

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Quality Function Deployment (QFD) are two important methods in quality management that are used to improve the quality of products and processes and meet customer requirements.

  1. FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis):
    • FMEA is a systematic method for identifying and evaluating potential failure modes in a product or process, as well as their impact on customer requirements.
    • Potential sources of failure are analyzed, evaluated and prioritized in order to minimize risks and develop preventive measures.
    • FMEA can be applied in various phases of the product life cycle, from the concept phase through development to production and use.
  2. QFD (Quality Function Deployment):
    • QFD is a method used to convert customer requirements into product features and ensure that the voice of the customer is incorporated into the design and development process.
    • It enables systematic capture and prioritization of customer requirements and their translation into technical specifications.
    • QFD promotes collaboration between different functions and departments within an organization to ensure that customer requirements are met effectively.

FMEA and QFD are closely linked and can be used in combination to further improve quality and customer satisfaction. While FMEA focuses on risk mitigation and failure prevention, QFD serves to integrate the customer voice into the product development process and ensure that products meet customer needs and expectations.
