AbstractPurpose -The aim of this research was to call attention to the implementation of failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) in a collaborative environment, the issues occurred in the implementation process, and a tool that can be used by all parties in a collaborative environment for FMEA process. Design/methodology/approach -The discussion includes the procedure of an integrated FMEA approach, how to implement the procedure in a supply chain, and the common problems occurred in its implementation in automotive industry under a collaborative environment. Findings -The research provided an example of inconsistency in the ranking of severity, occurrence, and detection to show that the inconsistency may delay FMEA implementation in a supply chain. Originality/value -This study offered guidelines for manufacturing industry in correcting the problems in FMEA applications, so companies can adopt their FMEA process into a collaborative supply chain environment. This paper also demonstrated a Microsoft EXCEL-based tool that can ease the FMEA process in a collaborative environment for determining sampling size, reliability and confidence level for tests in design verification and control plan as a part of integrated FMEA process.

Risk Assessment in Open Innovation Networks

“…It was original developed inside Aeronautic Industry in the 50's to guide the design process. But it has been widely used in a broader sense, not only to assess physical systems but also organizational ones, such as those in the areas of Knowledge Management [14] and supply-chain management [15]. The FMEA can be used as a design tool to systematically analyze postulated component failures and identify the resultant effects on system operations.…”

Um estudo sobre a certificação ISO 9001 no Brasil: mapeamento de motivações, benefícios e dificuldades

“…A qualidade de bens e serviços deve ser encarada como uma questão maior na empresa e não mais como um aspecto apenas voltado ao setor de produção (SLACK;CHAMBERS;JOHNSTON, 2002). Com a competitividade atingindo níveis cada vez mais elevados, as empresas passaram a observar a forma como produzem seus bens e serviços sob uma nova ótica.…”

“…Para Tarawneh 2000, as principais dificuldades são: resistência à mudança; baixa capacitação da mão de obra; complexidade de alguns instrumentos de gestão e de processos produtivos da empresa; e necessidade de investimento constante em capacitação e melhorias. (TENG et al, 2006;LADHARI, 2009;MEHRJERDI, 2010). Esta última aplicada a empresas de serviço.…”

The consistency analysis of failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) in information technology risk assessment

“…The FMEA method applied in risk management bears a consistency issue (Barends et al, 2012;Estorilio and Posso, 2010;Gary Teng et al, 2006;Oldenhof et al, 2011). A research conducted by (Lai and Chin, 2014) proposed Information Security FMEA Circle that modified traditional FMEA methodology.…”
