FMEA in the Age of Artificial Intelligence
A 2-day intensive training program providing a comprehensive overview of how to effectively integrate FMEA into your organization while leveraging Artificial Intelligence and dedicated software tools. AI enables rapid analysis of large datasets, more precise failure mode detection, and faster risk assessments. All aligned with the AIAG-VDA manual and its 7-step approach, with a focus on Action Priority (AP) to overcome the limitations of the classic RPN.
Who it's for
- Design Engineers, Technical Office Managers, Technical Directors, and Product Managers
- Quality Managers, Process Engineers, Production Managers, and Project Managers
- Anyone who wants to master FMEA methodology according to AIAG-VDA and use AI as an accelerator for failure prevention
