Root Cause Failure Analysis

( Duration: 2 Days )

This Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA) training course provides the concepts needed to effectively perform industrial troubleshooting investigations. The course covers the methodology to perform Root Cause Failure Analysis, Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA), ARCA (Apollo Root Cause Analysis), and other hot topics currently in maintenance engineering.

This course also provides detailed design and troubleshooting guidelines, investigating techniques for system failures, which are needed to perform problems found in most production facilities. Root cause failure analysis helps you to identify what, how and why something happened, thus preventing recurrence. Root causes can be controlled by management and allow for generation of recommendations.

This Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA) workshop is ideal for Technicians, Production supervisors, production lead personnel, quality engineers, manufacturing engineers, manufacturing managers, contract administrators, procurement personnel, procurement specialists, project managers, project engineers, design engineers, MRB engineers and program managers.
