Criticality Analysis

Enabling Criticality Analysis Fields

Criticality analysis fields will be enabled by default when you use the "MIL-STD-1629A" or "Comprehensive" profiles that have been predefined and shipped with the Xfmea software. You also can create your own custom profile with the criticality fields enabled, or simply modify the properties for a particular project.

You can make most of these selections on the FMEA > Criticality page of the interface style.

Qualitative Analysis

The Failure Probability and Severity Class fields are required for qualitative criticality analysis.

Quantitative Analysis

The Mode Criticality field is required for quantitative criticality analysis. The Severity Class also is applicable if you choose to generate the quantitative criticality matrix report.

Tip: If desired, you can also enable the Failure Probability field if you plan to use this rating scale to automatically set the reliability policy for the failure mode. (See Quantitative Criticality Analysis.)

Enable Mission Phase/Operational Mode for MIL-STD Style Reports

If you plan to use one of the predefined MIL-STD report templates for criticality analysis (i.e., "Criticality Analysis (MIL-STD Qualitative)" or "Criticality Analysis (MIL-STD Quantitative)"), you may also wish to enable the Mission Phase/Operational Mode field on the FMEA > Failures page of the interface style.
