Many Mistake Proofing solutions will take less than 2 hours of total analysis time to identify. Advanced solutions rarely take over 8 hours to discover. Implementing the solutions will depend on the technical resources and management support at your organization. Mistake Proofing and Error Proofing is used to cover problems missed by a solid PFMEA analysis. This two-day seminar will increase quality, productivity and profits while reducing or eliminating the need for product or quality control.

Seminar Content Error Proofing versus Mistake Proofing The Four Levels of Mistake Proofing Mistake Proofing Systems Documenting the Process, the Flow Diagram The Seven Failure Modes (7FMTM) The Four Root Causes The Three Causes Documenting the Failure Sequence of Cause, Failure Mode, Problem Under Study Root Cause Analysis (Workshop) Design Changes that Eliminate Errors Monitoring the Action (sensors) · Geometry and Physics Errors · Counting Errors · Sequence Errors Root Cause Solutions Cause Solutions Failure Mode Solutions Corrective Action The Mistake-Proofing Solution Development Matrix Look Past the Solution to its Potential Failure. Most Solutions will Fail, Plan for Reimplementation The Mistake-Proofing Report

Seminar Preparation Bring an actual problem and its related process flow diagram to the seminar. It is best that the problem be manufacturing, assembly or material handling related Who Should Attend Individuals who will be involved with developing mistake-proofing processes. Prerequisites Exposure to FMEA Concepts Related Seminars ISO/TS 16949 2002 Advanced Product Quality Planning Design FMEA Process FMEA with Control Plans Complimentary breakfast and lunch included. Each participant will receive a comprehensive manual at the start of the seminar and upon successful completion, participants will receive certification.
