FMEA is a procedure in operations management for the analysis and prevention of failure modes. Possible defects in processes and products are identified early on and minimized or eliminated through appropriate actions. This reduces complaints and development costs and anticipates potential defects which could affect the customer and ultimately performance.

This solution provides the enterprise with:

• Risk analysis (FMEA for product, process and system etc.)
• Support for defect prevention
• Standardized forms (AIAG QS9000, AIAG 3rd. Ed.,VDA 96, VDA 86)
• Integrated change and revision management
• Knowledge base development and extensive search functions
• Support for risk valuations (Risk Priority Number analysis, Pareto analysis)
• Management reports
• Export/import functions available to furnish FMEA data to partners, customers, and suppliers

SCIO-FMEA is used for products and production processes, especially in fields such as: automotive, aeronautic industry, medical technology, electronics, and machine construction. All these fields and their respective standards require risk analyses. These analyses represent a compulsory part of the “Production Part Approval Process."
