Failure Mode and Effects Analysis is a systematic engineering methodology used to identify potential ways a product, process, or system could fail, assess the severity and likelihood of each failure, and prioritize corrective actions before failures occur. It is widely used by quality, reliability, and manufacturing engineers in industries like automotive, aerospace, and medical devices, often following standards such as AIAG-VDA or SAE J1739. Practitioners typically score failure modes on severity, occurrence, and detection to calculate a risk priority number guiding mitigation efforts.
