Aerospace Risk Management and Analysis Series Design Tools Including DFMEA and Associated Tools

Course Duration: 2 Days - 8 Hours/day

This two-day hands-on seminar is intended to offer insight into, and hands-on experience with, the linkages between various aspects of the Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) process. Specifically, the development and linkage of Block Diagrams, System and Design FMEAs and Design Verification (Test) Plans (DVPs) are addressed.

SFMEAs are performed during the Design phase of APQP for Risk Management and Prevention. SFMEAs are used to identify Special Requirements, Critical Items and Key Characteristics to assist in the flow-down to sub-assemblies and components.

Learning Objectives

  • Provide a hands-on approach to S/DFMEAs and their relationship to program deliverables and status reporting
  • Provide the competencies needed to introduce new products and processes smoothly
  • Gain knowledge and understanding in:
  • Block Diagrams and Interface Matrix
  • Linkages between Block Diagrams, SFMEAs, DFMEAs, DVP and other design tools
  • Linkages between PFMEAs and S/DFMEAs
  • Using FMEA as an analytical process
  • S/DFMEAs and DVPs
