Failure Mode and Effects Analysis
Purposedifferent
With many similar objects of differing economic significance, the method prioritizes effort by effect. It separates what needs regular steering from what rarely needs attention.When many tasks compete for the same capacity, it orders work by economic impact. It makes time lost, benefit, and effort comparable together.For a process, product, or service with noticeable failure risks, the method assesses possible failure modes in advance. It directs attention to combinations of occurrence, effect, and detectability.
