    What is the definition of FMECA?

    • Fundamental Mechanical Effects Crisis Actions

    • Fully Mechanical Effective Critical Analysis

    • Failure Modes and Effects Criticality Analysis

    • Functional Maintenance Evaluation Component Archives

    Correct Answer
    A. Failure Modes and Effects Criticality Analysis
    Explanation
    FMECA stands for Failure Modes and Effects Criticality Analysis. It is a systematic approach used to identify and prioritize potential failures in a system, product, or process. FMECA involves analyzing the various failure modes, their potential effects, and the criticality of those effects. By conducting FMECA, organizations can proactively identify and address potential failures, leading to improved reliability, safety, and performance.
