Companies who manufacture products that have software embedded within them can gain significant benefit from by performing a Risk Analysis. This workshop can help your organization understand the process of Risk Analysis.

You will learn how to apply powerful tools such as Fault Tree Analysis, Failure Modes Effect and Criticality Analysis (FMECA), and Failure Reporting and Corrective Action System (FRACAS) in order to measure Reliability Growth and assess the effectiveness of changes intended to mitigate risks.

This workshop can help you identify areas of potential improvement. By applying the principles learned from this workshop, you can improve the effectiveness of your development activities, improve product reliability, minimize the likelihood of potentially costly product recalls, and significantly reduce rework costs.

Topics covered in this workshop include:

• Risk Management Overview

• Overview of International Standards

• Fault Tree Analysis: The top-down approach

• FMECAs: A complement to Fault Trees

• System Risk Analysis using Fault Trees and FMECAs

• Implementing a FRACAS

• Using FRACAS to Measure Reliability Growth

• Summary and Action Plan
