OBJECTIVE:

  • Develop, review, and maintain robust DFMEAs in accordance with the AIAG & VDA FMEA Handbook (1st Edition, 2nd Printing), applying the structured 7-step methodology.

  • Analyze structure, functions, and failure chains; evaluate Severity, Occurrence, and Detection (S-O-D); and determine Action Priority (AP) to drive technical design risk reduction.

  • Strengthen DFMEA integration with APQP, Customer Specific Requirements (CSR), special characteristics, PFMEA, lessons learned, and change management.

  • Updated to AIAG & VDA FMEA Handbook (1st Edition, 2nd Printing).

BASIC COURSE INFORMATION:

ADDRESSED TO:

Product and Design Engineering, Quality, Reliability, APQP/New Product Introductions, Supplier Quality, Projects, Supervisors, Managers, FMEA facilitators, and Auditors.

Competencies to Develop: Technical risk analysis, 7-step methodology, S-O-D/AP evaluation, cross-functional teamwork, optimization, and DFMEA-PFMEA traceability.

SYLLABUS

Module 1. Fundamentals and Evolution of AIAG & VDA DFMEA: Purpose of technical risk preventive analysis; key differences versus AIAG FMEA 4th Edition, and Action Priority (AP) versus traditional RPN usage.

Module 2. Step 1 – Planning and Preparation: 5Ts, scope, cross-functional team, Focus Element, inputs, CSR, and responsible reuse of Foundation/Family FMEAs.

Module 3. Step 2 – Structure Analysis: System, subsystem, component, and interfaces; structure tree, boundary/block diagrams, and inter-level relationships.

Module 4. Step 3 – Function Analysis: Functions, requirements, performance criteria, interfaces, and function-requirement networks.

Module 5. Step 4 – Failure Analysis: Failure Effect (FE), Failure Mode (FM), and Failure Cause (FC); failure chains/networks and effects on customer, OEM, and end-user, as applicable.

Module 6. Step 5 – Risk Analysis: S-O-D evaluation, current controls, Action Priority (AP), special characteristics, and Customer Specific Requirements.

Module 7. Step 6 – Optimization: Prevention/detection actions, robust design, action owners, and target dates; S-O-D/AP re-evaluation, effectiveness, and residual risk.

Module 8. Step 7 – Results Documentation and Communication: Risk summary, pending actions, technical decisions, lessons learned, and documentation updates.

Module 9. DFMEA → PFMEA Integration: Traceability of requirements, risks, and special characteristics to PFMEA and Control Plan; link to APQP 3rd Edition and change management.

Module 10. Practical Workshop and Assessment: Development/review of an automotive DFMEA, consistency checklist, effectiveness evaluation, and criteria for updating legacy FMEAs from AIAG FMEA 4th Edition.

BENEFITS

  • Prioritize design risks using Action Priority (AP).

  • Improve consistency among requirements, functions, failures, actions, and special characteristics.

  • Reduce failures, late changes, and poor quality costs.

  • Strengthen traceability with APQP, PFMEA, change management, and CSR.

  • Technical references: AIAG & VDA FMEA Handbook (1st Edition, 2nd Printing), IATF 16949:2016, AIAG APQP 3rd Edition, AIAG Control Plan 1st Edition, applicable CSR.
