COMPONENTS OF FMEA:

• Failure Mode - refers to the specific way in which a process, system, or component could potentially fail to perform its intended function
• Effects - refer to the consequences or outcomes that result from a failure mode occurring.
• Causes - the reasons or factors that contribute to the occurrence of a failure mode.
• Risk Priority Number (RPN) - a numerical value assigned to each failure mode, representing the combined assessment of its severity, occurrence, and detection ratings
