Why is FMEA important?

FMEA helps organisations identify critical failure risks before they occur, allowing teams to prioritise preventive actions and improve reliability.

When should FMEA be conducted?

FMEA can be conducted during design, commissioning, operation, equipment modification, or when recurring reliability issues need to be addressed.

What data is required for an FMEA study?

Typical data includes equipment specifications, process conditions, operating history, maintenance records, failure history, and existing maintenance strategies.

Who should participate in an FMEA workshop?

FMEA workshops usually involve operations, maintenance, engineering, reliability, inspection, and asset integrity teams.

What is the output of an FMEA study?

The output typically includes failure modes, causes, effects, risk rankings, recommended actions, and reliability improvement plans.

The PISB Approach

Your team works safer and more efficiently with manuals they can actually understand.

Understanding How Assets Can Fail

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis is a structured method used to identify potential failure modes, their causes, and their effects on equipment, systems, and operations.

FMEA helps organisations understand where failures may occur, how serious the impact could be, and what actions should be prioritised to reduce risk and improve reliability. The uploaded material explains that FMEA focuses on failure identification and risk prioritisation.

The Process

How We Identify, Assess & Prioritise
Failure Risks

Pure Integrity begins by defining the system scope, equipment boundaries, and asset functions to understand what each asset is expected to perform under normal operating conditions.

We then identify potential failure modes, possible causes, and the effects of each failure on safety, reliability, operations, maintenance, and cost. Each failure is assessed based on its severity, likelihood of occurrence, and ability to be detected before it causes impact.

From this analysis, we prioritise the most critical failure risks and develop practical recommendations to reduce risk, improve maintenance planning, and strengthen long-term asset reliability.

Problem We Solve

Unclear Failure Risks

We help identify how equipment or systems may fail and what impact those failures may cause.

Reactive Maintenance

We support teams in identifying potential failures before they lead to breakdowns or downtime.

Lack Of Structured Failure Analysis

We provide a clear method to analyse failure modes, causes, effects, and risk priority.

Poor Maintenance Prioritisation

We help prioritise actions based on failure impact, likelihood, and detectability.

High Downtime And Reliability Issues

We support reliability improvement by identifying critical failure risks early.

Benefits
