They illustrate the concepts of critical steps, or materials or substances critical for food safety via a quantitative failure mode, effects and criticahty analysis (FMECA) approach, derived from concepts used by the aviation or electronic industry for critical systems. It is a systematic approach which today facilitates the risk management at the sector scale, of several thousand references or complex assemblies integrating various materials and dozens of substances [NGU13] via an expert distributable and modifiable system FMECAengine [VIT 11b].
