Reverse PFMEA awareness - #TM138

Several automotive manufacturers such as STELLANTIS, RENAULT, FORD, GM, etc., as well as some Tier 1 suppliers, require the implementation of Reverse FMEA during the production phase as part of their CSR.

Reverse FMEA is a tool that is used to enhance the PFMEA by verifying the application and effectiveness of the prevention and detection measures defined in the PFMEA during series production, identifying new failure modes and causes, and evaluating them on the basis of factual data during series production.

At the end of a Reverse FMEA, new risk reduction actions are decided and the PFMEA and associated production documentation are updated.

• Explore the concepts of the Reverse FMEA and related customer requirements.
• Recognnize the advantages and benefits of the method for your company.
• Explore how to prepare and organize a Reverse FMEA based on feedback.
• Include observations from the Reverse FMEA in the process FMEA and production documentation.
• Be able to deploy the method in your organization after the training.

Recommended for technicians, engineers and managers in industrialization/engineering, production, maintenance and quality departments.

The training approach is based on sub-group activities with exercises and practical application on a case study.

At the end of these activities, each participant defines an action plan to be implemented in their company.

Multiple-choice questionnaire (10 questions) in 15 minutes. 60% correct answers expected.

A participant’s file containing the presentations delivered during the course and the exercise materials. Training materials in digital format are made available to trainees a few days before the course.
