Errors cost money. Therefore, it is important to predict errors before the start of a product development or a process and to be able to nip them in the bud. This is where FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) comes into play.

This analysis is team-oriented and is intended to expose potential errors or their causes in products, in their use or in processes in advance. If possible errors are found, their significance must then be recognized and evaluated in order to be able to initiate optimum preventive measures as required.

In the best case, high follow-up costs can be avoided or at least reduced.
