Introduction
Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA), is a proactive risk management methodology crucial in product development. It systematically anticipates potential failure modes in the design phase, assessing their impact, causes, and likelihood of occurrence. Understanding DFMEA is paramount for product design. It helps prevent and mitigate design-related issues before they manifest, ensuring product reliability, safety, and performance. This programme will equip individuals with the tools to identify, prioritize, and address potential failures early in the design process, ultimately reducing costs, enhancing product quality, and support a culture of continuous improvement within organisations.
