Analysis Plans

The Analysis Plan utility offers you the capability to perform project planning and management. This chapter provides an overview of the utility and its use.

An analysis plan allows you to:

Specify the members and leaders of a project team.
Define the tasks involved in your analysis and keep track of their completion.
List the information that all members of the analysis team will use to make judgments in the analysis.
Track the time spent working on the analysis and the members who have attended the sessions.
Track team members’ assessments of how effective the FMEA analysis process has been.

You can assign an analysis plan to an item at any level of the system hierarchy. For instance, if you want the entire project to be covered by one plan, you could assign an analysis plan only to the top-level system. Conversely, you might prefer to have a separate analysis plan for each subsystem.
