This standard describes Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Failure Mode, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA), and gives guidance as to how they may be applied to achieve various objectives, as follows:
— by providing the procedural steps necessary to perform an analysis;
— by identifying appropriate terms, assumptions, criticality measures, failure modes;
— by determining basic principles;
— by providing examples of the necessary forms.
All the general qualitative considerations presented for FMEA will apply to FMEAC, since one is an extension of the other.
