The FMEA module supports several standards and guidelines. The latest version contains new elements and enhancement, mainly boosting the usability and industry guideline support. Among the many improvements, a new important element is the FMEA risk matrix, which should be used as an evaluation tool for the priorities for the design or process FMEA.

You can use Teamcenter Quality Control and Inspection Planning to improve product quality, customer relations and satisfaction while decreasing development time. The integrated solution offers process and design-oriented inspection planning combined with control plan management to prevent rework and reduce costs.
