Parameter diagrams for FMEA preparation

Challenge

Unclear influencing factors put quality assurance at risk

When preparing an FMEA, precise analyses of influences on functions are crucial. However, a clear overview or the necessary structure is often lacking. This leads to higher costs and increases the risk of incorrect assessments.

Lack of transparency: Influences on system or component behavior are not fully documented.
High coordination effort: Teams work without a central platform, and information is easily lost.
Time-consuming data maintenance: Manual entry and updating delay the preparation of the FMEA.
Incomplete analysis: Potential disruptive factors are identified too late or overlooked.
Lack of international coordination: Global teams do not work on a common database.
No connection to follow-up processes: Results are not automatically transferred to FMEA or test plans.

Without a central parameter diagram in accordance with AIAG/VDA, you risk incomplete analyses and significantly increase the effort required for subsequent failure prevention.

Solution

Structured recording of disruptive factors and securing processes

Our parameter diagram software makes dependencies and disturbance variables transparent and prepares data so that you can use it directly in downstream processes such as FMEA or further analyses.

Structured overview: You can see all relevant influencing factors at a glance and avoid information gaps in the analysis.
Multiple use: Results from the parameter diagram flow directly into the FMEA, significantly reducing duplication of work.
Efficient collaboration: Your team works on the same diagram at the same time and contributes their findings directly.
Flexible access: The web-based solution saves you local installations and allows you to work flexibly across distributed locations.
International projects: Translation functions ensure consistent data and smooth coordination in international projects.
Quality assurance: You can identify potential disruptive factors during preparation before they cause problems in the process.
Versatile: The software is used to investigate system and component behavior, especially in complex systems with many interactions, conditions, and design parameters.

It supports you in preparing design FMEA and test plans, identifying failures and relevant inputs, and documenting your work – always in accordance with AIAG/VDA guidelines.

With our solution, you can prepare your FMEA quickly, in a structured and practical manner – while also improving the quality of your development processes.
