Video 5: PFMEA Step 5 Risk Analysis

This lesson focuses on "Risk Analysis," where the team estimates risk by evaluating Severity, Occurrence, and Detection using specific rating tables found in the new handbook. It highlights the transition from Risk Priority Numbers (RPN) to the new Action Priority (AP) logic (High, Medium, Low) and details how to assess the effectiveness of current prevention and detection controls within the manufacturing process.

You will learn how to apply the specific rating criteria for Severity, Occurrence, and Detection to assign accurate scores to identified risks based on the new standards. You will gain an understanding of the difference between behavioral and technical controls and how to use the Action Priority tables to prioritize improvement actions based on a holistic view of the risk factors rather than a simple calculation.
