The second and more common hardware FMEA examines actual system assemblies, subassemblies, individual components, and other related system hardware. This analysis should also be performed at the earliest possible phase in the product or system life cycle. Just as subsystems can fail with potentially disastrous effects, so can the individual hardware and components that make up those subsystems. As with the functional FMEA, the hardware FMEA evaluates the reliability of the system design. It attempts to identify single-point failures, as well as all other potential failures, within a system that could possibly result in failure of that system. Because the FMEA can accurately identify critical failure items within a system, it can also be useful in the development of the preliminary hazard analysis and the operating and support hazard analysis (Stephenson 1991). It should be noted that FMEA use in the development of the O SHA might be somewhat limited, depending on the system, because the FMEA does not typically consider the ergonomic element. Other possible disadvantages of the FMEA include its purposefiil omission of multiple-failure analysis within a system, as well as its failure to evaluate any operational interface. Also, in order to properly quantify the results, a FMEA requires consideration and evaluation of any known component failure rates and/or other similar data. These data often prove difficult to locate, obtain, and verify (Stephenson 1991). [Pg.114]
