Process FMEA with Control Plans and Reaction Plans

Evaluate and prioritize the risks in your processes. Take targeted action to reduce risk, thus proactively addressing potential quality, costs, safety and delivery concerns. This workshop-intensive seminar addresses each step of the PFMEA process and allows participants to work in a team environment during the construction of a PFMEA.

Who should attend:
Individuals from engineering, quality, purchasing manufacturing or other areas who might participate in the development of a Process FMEA.

Prerequisite: None

CEU Credits: 1.6

Duration: 16 Hours (2-day course)
