How To Conduct An Effective RFMEA (Reverse Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)

Updated: Nov 2, 2023

ENCONA hosted a free webinar on 17 May 2022, moderated by TARRYN JORDAAN, who was joined by subject matter experts HANS TRUNKENPOLZ and MARC SCHAEFFERS in an open discussion on this topic.


Reverse FMEA is a structured process of continuous improvement that aims to ensure the permanent updating and progress of an FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) study. This risk assessment method is based on reality and not predictive reliability.
