Why Control Plan Interaction

There are 3 different ways to access the FMEA

5 Why=FMEA Relationship.

1 st WHY

= Function

The FUNCTION describes each Process Step in a Process

2 nd WHY

= Requirements

The Process Requirements generally reflect the Operating Conditions that are required for effective Process Control. The Product Requirement generally reflects the Specifications that must be achieved.

= Failure Mode & Failure Effect

The Failure Mode is defined as the manner in which the process could potentially fail to meet the Product or Process Requirements. The Failure Effect is defined as the consequences incurred in the event of an actual Failure.

4 th Why

= Root Cause & Prevention Method

A Root Cause can be defined as a Product or Process or Design Weakness that may result in a failure.

5 th WHY

= Detection & Detection Weakness

The Detection Controls are specific actions taken to detect the Failure Mode if it happens.

1 st Why = Function

The data in this column automatically gets pulled through from the
