Topic #: 2
A failure node and effects analysis (FMEA) should be classified in what cost of quality category?
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a preventive action methodology used to identify and mitigate potential failures before they occur.
Appraisal:
Involves measuring and evaluating products to ensure they meet quality standards (e.g., inspection and testing).
Prevention:
Involves activities designed to prevent defects from occurring.
FMEA falls under prevention as it proactively identifies potential failure modes and implements measures to mitigate them.
Control:
Involves monitoring processes to maintain quality, but does not directly relate to preventive analysis like FMEA.
Inspection:
Involves examining products or components to ensure they meet specifications, not preventive by nature.
