Like every Systems2win Excel template, the FMEA Excel template is fully editable and customizable, and comes with a sample page containing extensive on-line help and on-line training - so that your Six Sigma team members can devote their valuable time to actually performing the FMEA analysis and problem-solving - rather than "inventing a template".

The primary objective of any Lean Six Sigma initiative is to reduce variability. (variability of both the process and its outcomes)

Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is one of the most popular Lean Six Sigma methodologies. FMEA analysis is used:

To initially design any system, product, or process
To subsequently change the system, product, or process
To define foreseeable risks
To prioritize attention to key process input variables that have the most probable impact on the desired and undesired outcomes
To assess the effectiveness of attempts to control variability

So what is the difference between FMEA and EMEA?

Some systems and processes are more focused on "errors" rather than "failures". The concepts are identical, even when the title changes to Error Modes and Effects Analysis (EMEA).
