Risk Priority Number
Vishwadeep Khatri posted a question in We ask and you answer! The best answer wins!
Q 617. In FMEA, Risk Priority Number helps us assess the risk in the process. While potentially RPN can range from 1 to 1000, could there be a process step, where the RPN is 1?

Hello All, Is Current RPN and New RPN are same ? It not, How Current RPN is different from New RPN ? . If New RPN is identified for a risk event for the first time, Before the recommended action or mitigation plan is implemented, how the number ( S, O, D ) change without the implementation ? Regards, Senthilnathan G

Risk Priority Number (RPN)
Vishwadeep Khatri posted a question in We ask and you answer! The best answer wins!
Q. 86 This question refers to FMEA and has reference to the following link - https://www.benchmarksixsigma.com/forum/topic/34926-fmea/ As per part of our November’17 Episode, in Q51 at the link above, we discussed the limitations of FMEA as a technique for Risk Assessment. In FMEA for each failure, we calculate a Risk Priority Number (RPN) which is a product of severity of failure (S), the likelihood of occurrence (O), and difficulty of detection in advance (D). These RPN values are used to rank the failures to eliminate/reduce risk, starting with the one with the highest RPN. Other than subjectivity involved in assigning a rating, what according to you are the limitations of using RPN values? Note for website visitors - Two questions are asked every week on this platform. One on Tuesday and the other on Friday. All questions so far can be seen here - https://www.benchmarksixsigma.com/forum/lean-six-sigma-business-excellence-questions/ Please visit the forum home page at https://www.benchmarksixsigma.com/forum/ to respond to the latest question open till the next Tuesday/ Friday evening as per Indian Standard Time.
