1. A method for performing a failure mode and effects analysis of an intended process, comprising:
- gathering data related to failures occurring in a similar process;
identifying potential failures in the intended process by a first entity based on the gathered data; and
performing a failure mode and effects analysis on the intended process by a second entity based on the potential failures identified by the first entity.

Abstract
A method for performing failure mode and effects analysis of an intended process includes gathering data related to failures and deficiencies occurring in a similar process. Then, potential failures and deficiences are identified in the intended process by a first entity based on the gathered data. Finally, a failure mode and effects analysis is performed on the intended process by a second entity based on the potential failures identified by the first entity.

13. A method for performing failure mode and effects analysis of a manufacturing process, comprising:
-
conducting line talks with workers in the manufacturing process related to failures occurring in the manufacturing process;
identifying potential failures in the manufacturing process by a first entity based on the line talks;
ranking the severity of the potential failures by the first entity;
performing a failure mode and effects analysis on the manufacturing process by a second entity based on the potential failures identified by the first entity. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
