Preview: 12th annual FMEA-Forum in Osnabrueck on the 29th & 30th of March 2017

With innovative solutions for Failure detection and Effect analysis and an interactive participation of the participants, this year's forum is once again a milestone around current trends and future requirements.

The FMEA Forum has developed the most important platform for the exchange of experience between users and experts. Host Winfried Dietz, Dietz Consultants, will present the event with a lecture on the diversity and best practice of FMEAs. He will report on which 5 key factors are important for an exemplary FMEA.

Dr. Alexander Schloske, Fraunhofer Institute for Production Engineering and Automation IPA will show in his presentation the success factors from 30 years of FMEA practice. Here, models of thought are discussed, moderation aids are presented and the practical implementation is reported.

Dr. Andreas Braasch from the Institute for Quality and Reliability Management, in collaboration with Patrick Glöckner of BPW Bergische Achsen KG, reports on the change from the OEM to the full-service provider in the area of reliability management. The practical contribution shows application examples and points to the limits to which the conventional QM methods meet.

Another lecture deals with the possibility of failure and effect in the area of a cult product in the household appliance sector.
Dr. Benedict Sommerhoff, German Society for Quality, reports on agile quality management in the field of FMEA.

Further lectures and interactive presentations will help the participants to make the most of their daily work.

SOTIF HARA and FMEA: Approach, Differences, and Synergistic Intersections Ms. Dipl.-Ing. Silke Wieking-Treml (Bertrandt Group) will speak on this topic at the 19th FMEA Forum in Osnabrück on March 6, 2024, in Osnabrück. She provides an insight with this guest contribution in our FMEA blog. Not all risk analysis are the same, even if many normative regulations, especially in the automotive environment, require one. Currently, with the increase in development activities in the field of autonomous driving, new standards are being launched and also require a risk consideration at the beginning of the development of safety systems. It is often mistakenly assumed that an FMEA - which has been known worldwide since the early 20th century - can be used synonymously for the term risk analysis. We clear up this mindset using an example of the SOTIF standard.

Safety & Security: Navigate cleverly through the jungle of standards and avoid expensive detours Ms. Dipl.-Ing. Silke Wieking-Treml (Bertrandt Group), along with Dr. Michael Gellner, will speak on this topic at the 19th Osnabrück FMEA Forum on March 6, 2024, in Osnabrück. Ms. Dipl.-Ing. Wieking-Treml provides an insight with this guest contribution in our FMEA blog. The goal is to identify overlaps of normative standards and to manage their requirements in an integrated approach, supported by tools and digitally. In this way, the management of normative specifications and their compliance in engineering is intelligently solved. Based on normative overlaps, the proportionality of evidence against several similar requirements should be efficiently designed.
