Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) are methodologies designed to identify potential failure
modes for a product or process
before they occur, to assess the risk associated with each failure mode, to rank the issues in terms of importance and to identify and carry out corrective actions to address the most
serious concerns. ReliaSoft's Xfmea facilitates analysis, data management and reporting for all types of FMEA and FMECA.
The following resources provide additional information on FMEA / FMECA analysis. Web Resources for
FMEA and FMECA
- SAE International: The Society for Automotive Engineers provides the ability to purchase
the J1739 and ARP5580 standards, as well as the AIR4845 document.
- AIAG: The Automotive Industry Action Group provides the ability to purchase the AIAG
FMEA Third Edition (FMEA-3) guidelines.
- IEC: The International Electrotechnical Commission provides the ability to purchase the IEC 60812 standard.
- Reliability-Related
Military Handbooks and Standards on weibull.com: This site provides access to U.S. Department of Defense standards and handbooks in PDF format,
including the MIL-STD-1629A standard for Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) analysis.
- FMEA Info Center: This site provides information on books, publications, standards, software, consultants and other resources
related to Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA). It also provides an on-line discussion list.
- NASA STI Special Bibliography for FMEA: NASA's Scientific and Technical Information (STI) program provides a "sampler
bibliography" that contains abstracts for documents related to Failure Mode and Effects Analysis ( FMEA) and Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) in the NASA STI Database.
