Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA)
Many problems that happen in the industrial field are “chronic” because they occur more than once for the same reason. If you add to this, that generally, only 20% of the problems cause 80% of the losses incurred, it is easy to see how important it is to locate and correct that 20%.
Our experience in this field is vast, having done tens of Root Cause Failure Analyses for a myriad of industrial companies (oil & gas, chemicals, power generation, metallurgy, manufacturing, electrotechnology, etc.)
Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA) consists in:
- Focus on that 20% of the problems which, once corrected, can generate savings of up to 80% and a noticeable improvement of the product or productive process involved
- Discover what the problem is
- Choose the best method to correct the imperfection
- Drastically reduce the flaws of a product and failures while in use
