Description

Need to be more preventative, prioritize risks, or brainstorm possible failures in a process or product? Process or Design FMEAs (PFMEA or DFMEA) are tools for identifying ways that a process can fail, and to evaluate and document what controls are in place to prevent or detect the problem. Rank each failure mode based on Severity, Occurrence and Detection to determine the highest risks to start mitigating. This FMEA Excel template (XLSX) will help you accomplish this task. Requires some prior knowledge of FMEA’s and how failure modes are identified and ranked by risk priority number (RPN). Comes with Severity, Occurrence and Detection Rankings tables, multiple Action Priority tables and automatic ranking tied to RPNs in the template, along with team attendance sheets.

Action Priority (AP) is a newer method for determining which risks from an FMEA should be addressed. Traditionally, the multiplication of Severity, Occurrence and Detection was used to calculate a Risk Priority Number (RPN). Any number over a certain RPN threshold required action to reduce the risk. However, it makes a difference whether you get a Severity of 8, Occurrence of 6 and Detection of 2, compared to a Severity of 2, Occurrence of 6 and Detection of 8, even though both equate to a RPN of 96.

Action Priority was developed in order to give more emphasis to Severity first, then Occurrence, and then Detection. You will receive three possible outcomes for each risk identified: Low, Medium and High.

We have now included Action Priority into this template to help you decide which risks should be addressed (Low, Medium or High).

In the example above, a risk with 8, 6 and 2 would result in an action priority level of High, but a risk with 2, 6 and 8 would result in an action priority of Low.

To determine the action priority level, we have created a few tables and a matrix you can reference.

NEW!  Good news! You don’t have to build your own lookup or determine the priority manually anymore! We have it connected directly to the FMEA template!

But in case you need a list of every combination of Severity, Occurrence and Detection, we have included it into the template for reference. You can also review the Excel VLOOKUP formula in the template to see how we created the assignment automatically from the table below.
