Aerospace FMEA and Control Plan (Based on AESQ RM13004)

aero-both.jpg
Summary

FMEA is an analytical method to ensure potential problems have been considered, assessed for risk, and actioned as part of product and process design. It provides a record of an organisation's collective knowledge about its products and processes. The intent of the control plan is to document and provide value added controls in support of the PFMEA process. Implementation of an effective DFMEA, PFMEA and control plan form key foundation activities in support of the zero-defect goal.

Description

This course covers FMEA and Control Plan requirements for AS13100 and AESQ Reference Manual RM13004 - Defect Prevention Quality Tools to support APQP and PPAP. This course outlines the competitive advantages of effective Design and Process FMEA's along with the benefits of value-added controls within the control plan.

FMEA is used to support the introduction of new products and processes as well as supporting changes to existing products and processes.

Who should attend?

This course is designed for Process Design Practitioners, Process Improvement Teams, Implementation Teams, Internal Auditors and others involved in the implementation or auditing of Process Failure Modes and Effects Analysis and Control Plans. It supports the goal of zero defects, defect prevention and the reduction of variation and waste.  Companies that apply DFMEA, PFMEA and Control Plans will see improved product conformity, better delivery performance and reduced cost of non-quality.

Benefits and Learning Objectives

Delegates will become competent in understanding the requirements of DFMEA and creating and analysing Process FMEA's / Control Plans at "Practitioner" level and will develop the capability to apply the methods to implement Failure Mode and Effect Analysis and Control Plans within their organisation.
