This Standard establishes uniform requirements and criteria for a capability-based Product Failure Mode, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA). The capability-based aspect of this Standard requires that the organization's FMECA capability be rated according to defined criteria for process capability and data maturity. The structured process that this Standard defines integrates the FMECA process with other mission assurance processes within systems engineering to identify, analyze, and manage failure mode risks in a manner that is commensurate with the product's unit-value/criticality and systems engineering life cycle phase.
