Digital Quality 4.0 Product

PFMEA Software
Proactive Risk Prevention

Prevent Failures Before They Happen. Strengthen APQP. Improve Process Reliability.

PFMEA is essential for building reliable and defect-free manufacturing processes. Our PFMEA Software helps teams digitize, standardize, and accelerate PFMEA creation— fully aligned with AIAG-VDA guidelines.

Built for automotive, aerospace, and high-precision industries, it helps reduce risk, eliminate inconsistencies, and strengthen your APQP workflow.

PFMEA Software

Why PFMEA?

Traditional PFMEA in Excel is slow, inconsistent, and error-prone. Our PFMEA platform solves this with guided, structured, and collaborative digital workflows built for high-quality manufacturing.

Challenges With Traditional PFMEA:

Missing or incomplete failure modes
Repetitive manual data entry
Hard to link with Control Plans
Poor version tracking
Non-compliant documentation

Key Features

AIAG-VDA Structured PFMEA Workflow

The software follows the 7-step AIAG-VDA methodology to maintain global compliance and ensure structured creation.

Planning & Preparation
Structure Analysis
Function Analysis
Failure Analysis
Risk Analysis
Optimization
Documentation

All steps are guided and auto-formatted per AIAG-VDA guidelines.

Hierarchical Process Mapping (Process Tree)

Visually map the entire manufacturing process to ensure no operation, station, or sub-process is missed during analysis.

Manufacturing steps
Sub-processes & stations
Machine interactions
Operator roles
Process inputs & outputs

The process tree forms the backbone for accurate failure mode analysis.

Automated Function & Failure Mode Suggestions

AI-assisted recommendations help engineers build PFMEAs faster by suggesting relevant failure modes and effects.

Suggests common functions
Recommends potential failure modes
Highlights missing sections
Provides improvement suggestions
Identifies high-risk patterns early

Greatly reduces repetitive work and improves PFMEA standardization.

Integrated Severity, Occurrence & Detection Ranking

Apply ratings using built-in AIAG-VDA compliant S, O, and D tables with automated Action Priority (AP) calculation.

Severity ranking (S)
Occurrence ranking (O)
Detection ranking (D)
Automatic Action Priority (AP)
Risk color coding

Ensures zero manual calculation mistakes and consistent scoring.

Closed-Loop Action Tracking & Optimization

Turn PFMEA into a living document with actionable, trackable tasks for reducing risks and verifying effectiveness.

Assign actions to owners
Due dates & reminders
Progress tracking
Recalculation after mitigation
Status: Open, In Progress, Closed

Ensures risk reduction efforts are executed, tracked, and validated.

Auto-Linking With Control Plan, MSA & Process Flow

Seamless integration inside the MAPP ZEN ecosystem ensures all quality documents stay synchronized in real-time.

Control Plan parameters auto-generated
Ballooned characteristics mapped
MSA requirements identified
SPC parameters linked
Process flow synchronized

Creates a single, unified source of truth across APQP.

Real-Time Collaboration & Version Control

Designed for global, multi-plant operations needing strict traceability, access control, and audit logs.

Multi-user editing
Comments & approvals
Revision comparison
Full change history
Audit-ready logs

Ideal for distributed teams and customer/audit compliance.

Template Library for Faster PFMEA Creation

Build and reuse templates for standardized processes (welding, molding, etc.) to significantly reduce creation time.

Process specific templates
Reusable workstation templates
Product family templates
Standard parameter libraries

Accelerates PFMEA creation by 50–70% while enforcing standardization.

Auto-Generated AIAG-VDA Compliant Reports

Instantly produce auditor-ready reports directly from the system, formatted exactly to industry standards.

AIAG-VDA formatted PFMEA sheets
Risk matrix
Action reports
Process flow diagrams
Control plan mappings

Ideal for PPAP submissions and customer audits.
