Question

You are evaluating the steps in a core process using an FMEA ( Failure Modes and Effect Analysis). The scales to rate severity, occurrence, and detection have been created and agreed upon by the team. How would you use the FMEA to prioritize the critical process steps?

I.) Prioritize based on the severity of the failure mode

II.) Prioritize base on how often the cause of the failure occurs

III.) Prioritize based on the ability to control the failure

I only

II only

Multiply I and II ( also known as “criticality”)

Multiply I, Ii, and III ( I x II x III)

Explanation / Answer

All the three impact the failures, hence the option Multiply I, II and III ( IxIIxIII)
