RPN REDUCTION

PROCESS

Steps to RPN reduction process


Please go through below process of RPN reduction.
1. Take Original PFMEA, calculate combined RPN & make baseline
data in attached file. (BASE LINE COLUMN)
2. Put total number of causes & details as mentioned in 4th slide.
3. We will track future RPN reduction in same sheet as next 2
columns dated on Jan, Feb &Mar
4. We will reduce RPN working upon top 10 actionable points, Kindly
fill top 10 actionable points. Dont forget to mention target date.
5. Tracking of causes on the base of RPN improvement.

BASE LINE COLUMN

Combined RPN is total of Each operations failure mode(or cause) E.g. operation 1 having
5 potential failure mode/causes- each having 70 RPN,so combined RPN is 70*5= 350.

Tracking of Potential failure mode/causes on RPN base

E.g. 2 causes
having 40 RPN
shown by green, 1
cause having RPN
of 160 shown by
red color.
