FMEAarviointi
FMEAarviointi refers to the Finnish term for Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) assessment or evaluation. FMEA is a systematic, proactive method for evaluating a process, product, or design to identify potential failure modes and their causes and effects. The assessment aspect, FMEAarviointi, involves reviewing and analyzing the results of an FMEA. This can include verifying the identified failure modes, assessing the severity, occurrence, and detection ratings assigned to them, and determining the overall risk priority number (RPN). The purpose of an FMEAarviointi is to ensure the FMEA has been conducted thoroughly and accurately, and that the resulting risk mitigation strategies are effective. It often involves cross-functional teams to provide diverse perspectives. The FMEAarviointi process may lead to revisions of the original FMEA, refinement of control plans, or the implementation of further corrective actions. Ultimately, it aims to improve the reliability and safety of systems, products, or processes by systematically addressing potential failures before they occur.
