Automotive failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA)
Challenges in automotive safety
Automotive failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) is a cornerstone of automotive risk management, required by IATF 16949 and key OEMs. However, as systems grow more complex, traditional FMEA approaches can fall short.
Effective FMEA must be dynamic, cross-functional, and integrated across development stages to identify and mitigate failure modes that could compromise safety and performance.
