  • Abstract:
    Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a systematic and analytical quality planning tool for identifying and addressing what potentially could go wrong with a product or process. The project 'Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) in the cladding industry' describes the FMEA technique, investigates failures of cladding on a system, component and process level, and maps the cladding supply chain and cladding-related decision making. The level of knowledge of failures and the fragmented industry structure prevents rigorous use of FMEA exemplified by other industries. However, a simplified form of FMEA can be performed based on the research findings to prioritize and inform decision-making and facilitate site inspection /supervision.
