This study refined a risk mapping methodology using failure mode effects analysis (FMEA). The progressive, multidisciplinary approach enhances risk quality management by incorporating residual risk.
Area of Science:
- Quality Management
- Risk Assessment Methodologies
Context:
- Evaluation of a risk mapping methodology over two years.
- Adaptation of the Failure Mode Effects Analysis (FMEA) method.
- Introduction of residual risk management concepts.
Purpose:
- To describe the evaluation of an adapted risk mapping methodology.
- To assess the integration of new risk concepts and team collaboration.
Summary:
- Upgraded scales for gravity and detectability based on practical application.
- Identified critical points and implemented residual risk management.
- Acknowledged ongoing challenges with scenario multiplicity.
Impact:
- Risk mapping is crucial for effective risk quality management.
- A progressive, multidisciplinary approach improves methodology.
- Enhanced risk assessment supports project development.
