Failure Mode and Effects Analysis
See failures before they happen and prioritize risks.
FMEA is a web-based tool that lets you identify potential failure modes in your product (DFMEA) and process (PFMEA) design, prioritize their risk and manage them with preventive actions.
What you gain with QUALIX
- Action Priority (AP) is automatic as soon as S/O/D is entered — no manual RPN/AP math.
- DFMEA/PFMEA, actions and re-evaluation tracked in one place.
- Digital links to the control plan and function tree — no copy-paste inconsistency.
- Co-editing and revision history keep you IATF-audit-ready at all times.
How it works
Run your FMEA end to end in a few steps — from setup to risk scoring and reporting.
-
1
Create a company and project
Enter your company, choose Design (DFMEA) or Process (PFMEA); start from scratch or try ready sample data.
-
2
Define project details
Enter part/process, team and revision. Average RPN, top risk and risk distribution are summarized instantly.
-
3
Analyze failure modes
For each step write the failure mode, effect and cause; rate Severity · Occurrence · Detection (S·O·D). RPN and Action Priority (AP) are computed automatically and rows are sorted by risk.

Purpose
The goal is to detect and prevent problems before they reach the customer — even before they occur. It systematically reduces risk with the AIAG-VDA methodology and preserves organizational knowledge.
