Design Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (DFMEA)
Maintenance definition:
DFMEA is a systematic, step-by-step approach for identifying all possible failures in a design before it goes into production. It assesses potential failure modes for products and processes, including the effects and causes of failures, to prioritize and mitigate risks. In maintenance, DFMEA insights can guide preventive maintenance strategies, design improvements, and reliability-centered maintenance planning.
