Design Record
π PROCESS FMEA
Are all operations from the process flow chart identified and listed sequentially on the process FMEA?
Are all ballooned / numbered features included on PFMEA?
Are all balloon features failure modes listed in specific terms (e.g. separate line for over the upper limit, under the lower limit, and missing feature)?
Are the effects of failures listed appropriately to address the impact on each part, next higher assembly, system, vehicle, customer wants, government regulations and operator safety?
Are all Man, Method, Machine, Material, Measurement related potential causes and/or mechanisms of failure identified for all failure modes?
Are listed causes described in terms of something that can be corrected or controlled? (Prohibited to use βOperator Errorβ as a potential failure. The failure must be rooted to a process or system.)
Are corrective actions, responsibilities and completion dates assigned to high severity failure modes (Severity 8, 9, or 10) and high risk priority numbers?
In case of no recommended actions, does PFMEA state βNoneβ in the recommended actions column?
Are all Special Characteristics (e.g., critical, key, significant, PTC) identified and addressed on the PFMEA in the Characteristic column?
Are Severity, Occurrence and Detection rankings as per AIAG / VDA PFMEA Manual recommendations?
Does the Title on PFMEA list correct part name, part#, engineering change level, document release, revision date?
Does the severity rating agree with DFMEA (if available)?
Is PFMEA adequate to define all possible failure modes associated with product, process and manufacturing system?
