Dynamic control plan combines FMEA and the control plan
OVERVIEW Advanced quality planning (AQP) includes quality functiondeployment (QFD, house of quality), design FMEA, process FMEA, and the control plan. All these activities are interrelated. The outputs of QFD are inputs to the design FMEA, the design FMEA's outputs are inputs to the process FMEA, and the process FMEA's outputs define the requirements of the control plan. The control plan governs operations that affect the critical to quality product characteristics and it includes, for example, sampling plans, metrology, and measurement systems analysis (MSA). As the process FMEA defines the critical operations and their failure modes—that is, how a deficiency in the operation can cause nonconformances—it is natural to extend the FMEA to include the control plan itself. The result is a dynamic control plan, a living document that evolves in response to process improvements, and thus drives continual improvement. The webinar will cover additional considerations for FME...
