8 new templates
for FMEA
Systems2win has recently release 8 new templates for FMEA Failure Mode Effects Analysis,
the Lean Six Sigma approach to reduce risk.
The FMEA template itself has received a HUGE upgrade - including:
- Multi-language data
- Class Codes (a better rating system than RPN)
- Automatic formatting of borders and whited out repeat data - so that the printed version looks right to the human eye - and yet Excel has the repeat data it needs for Filters and Pivot Tables
The Control Plan template has improved field headers, improved column labels, improved language translation, improved dropdown data validation lists, and improved training for how the Control Plan relates to the PFMEA.
The Interface Matrix is a new template to indentify and clarify interfaces between environment, systems, sub-systems, and components that are beneficial or detrimental to functionality.
It also suggests P-Diagram input, outputs, and noise factors.
Prior to creating an FMEA - use the parameter diagram to analyze Inputs and Outputs and Noise Factors and Control Factors that can affect performance of desired Ideal Functions, and mimimize Error States.
Prior to creating a PFMEA -
use the Process Flow Diagram to identify Sources of Variation, and desired Deliverables (ideal Functions) for each Process Step.
When creating a PFMEA - use the Characteristic Matrix to identify process steps that can compromise characteristics of the product or service that are noticeable and important to the customer.
Use the Function Requirements Worksheet to identify and clarify Functions and corresponding Requirements prior to completing the Function and Requirements columns of the FMEA form
DVP&R for formalized testing of product or service to ensure compliance with all requirements.
And if you are using QFD (or even just a Cause & Effects Matrix) to scientifically answer the question "what do our customers want from us?"...
then, of course, you know that your FMEAs are tightly correlated with the QFD, and all of its associated supporting templates, such as Voice of the Customer, and Kano Analysis...
and now all of these templates, (and more),
are included within the Systems2win Six Sigma bundle of templates - for one surprisingly low price.
