Failure Modes Effects Analysis
Failure Modes Effects Analysisis is the analysis of HOW the equipment can fail and what is the effect of failure.

It is designed to identify potential failure modes for an item or system, to assess the risks involved with those failures, to categorise and order in terms of importance, and to identify and either put in place mitigations or institute corrective actions to address those that can be addressed.
