Using Failure Modes and Effects Analysis
Ever wish you had a crystal ball to manage risk? Think how great it would be if you could anticipate issues and fix them before they turn into real problems, e.g., expensive claims.
That’s what Failure Modes and Effects Analysis – or FMEA – is all about. While many risk management activities are focused on reviewing past events, such as claims incurred over the past year, FMEA focuses on identifying weak spots in advance to avoid trouble in the first place.
