Hi everyone,
I have noticed in the corporate world that Detection rating in FMEA has multiple interpretations. Let us explore this.
When you assess detection rating, what is the question you ask?
A. What is the probability of the failure being detected and corrected before impacting the customer
OR
B. What is the probability of failure being detected (irrespective of timely correction) before customer is impacted?
OR
C. What is the probability of failure being detected or prevented (through detection of cause) before customer is impacted?
OR
D. What is the probability of the cause of failure being detected and corrected before failure occurs?
OR
E. What is the probability of the cause of failure being detected (irrespective of correction) without impacting the customer?
