| COURSE ID : WGQS-005 |
| AUTHOR: Fernando Perez |
| DURATION: One Day |
| WHO SHOULD ATTEND: |
|
Quality assurance,
reliability, product and process design, production, test equipment,
maintenance, sales and service personnel in the manufacturing industry. |
| PURPOSE: |
| Apply methodical and proactive
actions in a multidisciplinary team environment that minimize risks associated with
conceivable process failures in accordance with the standard SAE J1739. |
| GENERAL DESCRIPTION |
|
Process Failure Mode
and Effects Analysis (PFMEA) is one of the most widely used and
effective tools for analyzing and improving the reliability of products
and processes.
This performance
oriented course is driven by the PFMEA methodology to help participants
apply the learned material directly into their work environment from a
practical perspective without using any software. This course offers an
structured procedure that can be easily integrated into the quality
management system in organizations certified in ISO 9001:2000, ISO/TS
16949:2002, or AS 9100.
Participants will
appreciate the importance of teamwork to identify the purposes of the
process, the potential failure modes and the potential causes. Students
will learn how to make successful consensus based decisions about the
risk level of the potential failures, risk mitigation plans and the
verification of the effectiveness of the actions taken. |
