ENGINEERING TOOLS & METHODS
• Examine why problems can be difficult to solve • Identify typical poor approaches to problem solving, and how to stay away from these approaches • Describe why a systematic approach to problem solving is ideal • Review current problem-solving approaches used by participants • Review popular problem-solving approaches such as: −− Those used by Toyota, Honda and Nissan −− TRIZ −− Shainin – Red X • Troubleshooting vs. Problem Solving • Defining Root Cause Analysis • Continual Improvement • Exercise activities to demonstrate key concepts III. The requirements for each step of a basic systematic and effec- tive approach to problem solving and root cause analysis. • Review the steps of a basic problem-solving approach • Analyze the requirements for effectively carrying out every step of the basic problem solving and troubleshooting approaches • A series of questions to be answered at each step assures effective implementation IV. Selecting and applying problem solving (root cause analysis) tools • Problem Description tools such as Is/Is Not analysis • The “Seven Basic Tools of Quality” • Process Orientation; Flow Diagrams and Process Maps • Containment/Prevent Escape Strategies – Protect the Customer • Root Cause analysis −− Barrier Analysis −− Change Analysis −− The Five Whys −− Cause and Effect Diagram −− Fault Tree Analysis −− Data Gathering and Analysis Techniques. −− Multiple “root causes” and how to deal with this situation • Risk Analysis • Verification and Validation Strategies • Exercise activities to reinforce the selection and correct use of the tools V. Applying the basic problem solving and root cause analysis approach on real company problems (or a generic case study) • Form teams and apply a team building tool • Use the course materials, forms and guidance by the instructor to lay out approaches for solving “real” problems
Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (PFMEA) and Control Plans 1 Day | Classroom (Available for Private Delivery Only) I.D.# C1511 The Process FMEA and Control Plan program introduces the basic concepts behind this important tool and provides training in how to conduct an effective PFMEA. First the course explains what a PFMEA is and how it improves the long-term performance of your products, services and related processes by addressing process related failures. The role of the PFMEA in the overall framework of Quality Management System Requirements is explained as well as the role of the PFMEA in the Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) process. Additionally, the differences and relationships between the DFMEA and PFMEA are well defined. With this background information, the course provides a systematic, standardized approach for completing the Process FMEA. Outputs from PFMEAs are essential inputs to Control Plans. This course pairs training on building Control Plans with PFMEAS because of this relationship. The basic format for and methodology for building, using and maintaining an effective Control Plan is presented. Learning Objectives By attending this seminar, participants will be able to: • Describe how the PFMEA can drastically improve the long-term reliability of their organizations products and processes • Describe the role of the PFMEA within a quality management system • Describe the differences and relationships between the PFMEA and DFMEA • Build and lead a Cross-functional Team for completing a PFMEA • Follow the AIAG Potential Failure Mode and Effects Analysis Reference Manual for completing a PFMEA • Conduct a Brainstorming Session aimed at eliminating process failure • Develop and use a Process Flow Diagram for use as a job aid in completing the PFMEA • Document of the analyses results on the standard PFMEA form • Use the Process Controls identified during the PFMEA as inputs to the Control • Create, Employ and Maintain a Control Plan Who Should Attend This PFMEA and the Control Plan course will provide training to a manufacturer’s process engineering, development, operations, quality and administrative personnel. These individuals are typically involved in the development and production of parts for direct use in the manufacture of automobiles or other manufac- tured items. Technical Managers of personnel involved in the above would benefit as well.
