AS13004: Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (PFMEA) and Control Plans C1889


In the Aerospace Industry there is a growing focus on Defect Prevention to ensure that quality goals are met. Process Failure Mode & Effects Analysis (PFMEA) and Control Plan activities described in AS13004 are recognized as being one of the most effective, on the journey to Zero Defects.

This two-day course is designed to explain the core tools of Process Flow Diagrams, Process Failure Mode & Effects Analysis (PFMEA) and Control Plans as described in AS13004. It will show the links to other quality tools such as Design FMEA, Characteristics Matrix and Measurement Systems Analysis (MSA). The course will include hands on examples of PFMEA deployment in a variety of typical manufacturing environments (including processing, machining and assembly) to illustrate how the technique is to be deployed.  It will also describe the use of Reference Process FMEAs that can be used to minimize the duplication and reduce the time taken to produce an effective PFMEA whilst maintaining the required rigor.


Learning Objectives
By attending this seminar, you will be able to:
  • Evaluate and contribute to the Design FMEA activity
  • Complete a Process Flow Diagram (PFD) in line with AS13004 requirements
  • Lead the development of a Process FMEA on a manufacturing / assembly process
  • Assess Process Risks and prioritize actions
  • Identify appropriate risk mitigation improvement actions
  • Learn how to develop a Control Plan from the Process FMEA information
  • Create Reference Process FMEAs for future use in creating Part Specific PFMEAs
  • Set out a deployment strategy for your business for AS13004
