Move Over Excel

MOVE OVER EXCEL!

No more struggling with a generic tool to perform FMEAs.

THE FMEA TOOL OF CHOICE

FMEAs require the efficient handling of a large amount of data. The organization of this wealth of information along with team collaboration activities are key to effective FMEA management. This is where Relyence FMEA shines. Wrapping an intuitive interface around a feature-rich FMEA package, Relyence FMEA enables you to manage your FMEA process with ease and efficiency. Generic-use tools are no match for Relyence FMEA with its intuitive interface, built-in calculations, always-in-syncTM technology, audit trail tracking, custom Formulas, and innovations such as the Knowledge BankTM for data reusability and Failure Direct ConnectTM for FMEA and FRACAS integration. 
FMEA PFMEA Worksheet
The customizable FMEA worksheet provides an intuitive interface freeing you to focus on improving your system.
Intuitive Worksheet Functionality

Your work center in Relyence FMEA is the Worksheet. The Worksheet is tailored to the FMEA template of choice, with color-coding and data grouping to aid in understanding. Auto-complete functionality is built-in to allow quick and easy reuse of your textual data to ensure consistency, eliminate errors, reduce the time required to complete your analysis, significantly improving efficiency. Worksheet layout is completely customizable and functionality is intuitive and mobile-friendly.

FMEA Forms

The Relyence FMEA Worksheet view is augmented with the Relyence FMEA Forms interface that offers a form-based view of your FMEA data. The Form View supports the same features and functionality of the Worksheet interface. The Form View can be used as your main interface if you prefer, or you can access it on-demand to get an expanded view of a single FMEA line item. Moving between the two views is a streamlined one-click operation.

FMEA PFMEA Form
Forms can be customized for FMEA analyses in the manufacturing, healthcare, medical and other industries.
FMEA Calculations
Calculations are automatic with user-definable color-coding to highlight RPN and/or AP results.
Risk Metrics

Relyence FMEA supports the automatic assessment of risk metrics of your identified failures. Available metrics include Risk Priority Numbers (RPN) used in AIAG and SAE J1739 compliant FMEAs, the criticality values defined in MIL-STD-1629 FMECAs, and Action Priorities (AP) as described in the AIAG & VDA FMEA standard.

RPN and AP values are color-coded based on risk level, and can be customized to meet your needs. Relyence FMEA RPN, AP, and criticality values can be included in your Relyence FMEA Dashboards allowing you to monitor these vital statistics at a high level.

Knowledge BankTM

The FMEA Knowledge Bank provides a powerful way to organize and automate your FMEAs. Add any FMEA information from your FMEA to your Knowledge Bank – FMEA Functions, Failure Modes, Effects, Actions, and even full components or systems. As you perform your FMEAs, use the flexible search feature to mine your Knowledge Bank for information pertinent to your analyses. Another single click, and that prior knowledge is retrieved into your current analysis. Never lose any of your critical lessons learned!

Plus, the Relyence FMEA Knowledge Banktm keeps your FMEAs in sync automatically, if you desire. Modifications made to your Knowledge Bank data can ripple through all your FMEAs that have data ties to the Knowledge Bank.

Over time, your FMEA Knowledge Banks grow and become a powerful way to automate FMEAs.
Relyence FMEA Formulas
Relyence FMEA Formulas enable you to create your own set of equations to compute customized FMEA metrics.
Formulas

Relyence FMEA includes an intuitive interface to define your own completely customized Formulas. You can create Formulas to operate on your FMEA Worksheet data, as well as Formulas that operate on Analysis Tree data. This powerful feature allows you to create your own equations for keeping track of your own FMEA metrics.

A wide range of flexibility is available for creating basic as well as complex Formulas, such as those including logical operators (AND, OR, <>, etc.), constants, dates, and programmatic functions (if/then/else).

FMEA Formulas also support Roll-up and Aggregate functions such as SUM and AVG to provide cumulative calculations.

Failure Direct ConnectTM

The unique-to-Relyence Failure Direct Connect capability offers an innovative and new approach to integrating your FRACAS and FMEA processes.

With Failure Direct Connect, your FRACAS team is able to connect directly to your FMEA failure data. If FRACAS team members uncover a new failure mode, they can make a request that the FMEA team review and decide how to proceed with the newly discovered item.

With this notable feature you have ability to directly connect your FMEA and FRACAS processes and effectively manage your failure information across the product lifecycle.

Relyence Failure Direct Connect ensures your failure information remains connected throughout the product lifecycle.

Relyence supports full Audit Trail capabilities ensuring your system is trackable and in compliance.
Audit Trails

Relyence FMEA supports Audit Trails to track and record all data changes made to your analyses. Often used for security and tracking purposes, audit trails provide a detailed log of data modifications. Audit trails are also helpful to answer critical questions such as “Who made this change?”, or “When was this change made?”.

You can review automatically logged FMEA audit trail data in several ways:

  • By individual data field. For example, view all changes made to the “Recommended Action” field.
  • By line item. For example, view all changes made to a single Failure Mode.
  • Entire FMEA. Generate a full audit trail report for your entire FMEA to an Excel or CSV format.
Excel-based FMEAs are no match for Relyence!

While oftentimes small FMEAs are performed using Excel, the limitations quickly become apparent with this approach. Some of the many advantages of relying on Relyence FMEA for your analyses include:

  • Text phrases are organized and managed for you. Built-in auto-complete ensures consistency and accuracy of wording of your failure modes, effects, causes, and all your FMEA information.
  • The unique FMEA Knowledge BankTM provides a powerful way to organize and automate your FMEAs, and ensures you capture and retain lessons learned.
  • The innovative Failure Direct ConnectTM offers a streamlined way to integrate your FMEA and FRACAS failure information.
  • PFMEAs, Process Flow Diagrams, and Control Plans employ Relyence FMEA’s unique always-in-sync™ technology so your PFMEA process remains in control and completely managed.
  • Piece-part FMECAs can access the built-in FMD-2016 Failure Mode Distribution database for efficiency and automation.
  • Calculations are automatic.
  • Relyence FMEA is available in the cloud over the Internet for quick and easy collaboration.
  • Relyence FMEA operates on your PC, your Mac, your tablet, and even your smartphone.
  • You can easily import your analyses from Excel or other applications.
  • Support for hierarchical FMEAs allows grouping your analyses for a powerful organizational method.
  • You can easily create FMEAs for multiple iterations of your product or system, all in one place.
  • You can create FMEAs based on other FMEAs including both layout options and previous FMEA data.
  • You can create multiple views of your data and switch between them in a single click.
  • Custom block diagrams of your system provide a high-level graphical view.
  • Dashboards allow you to see key metrics on your data such as:
    • Top failure modes
    • Overdue actions
    • Risk and criticality matrices
