Module 6: IMPROVE

Implementation & Risk Mgmt

 Critical points:
Implementation Plan
1. Stakeholder management – ensure
involvement of stakeholders to get their
buy-in.

2. Consult your Sponsor & make sure to use

appropriate influence strategy for each
stakeholder.

3. Communicate, Communicate,
Communicate.

4. 5min Huddles work

Make sure to address the WHY, WHO, WHAT, WHEN,

WHERE, HOW to the project team.
DEFINITION OF RISK
• “A potential threat or possibility that an action or event
will adversely affect the ability to achieve desired
objective.”

• “risk is considered as an indicator of threat, or depends

on threats, vulnerability, impact and uncertainty.”

• Risk Management is a structured approach to managing

uncertainty related to a threat, through a sequence of
human activities including: risk assessment, strategies
development to manage it, and mitigation of risk using
managerial resources.

FAILURE MODE and EFFECTS

ANALYSIS (FMEA)
A structured approach to:
• Identifying the ways in which a product
or process can fail
• Estimating risk associated with specific
causes
• Evaluating current control plan (if any)
• Prioritizing the actions that should be
taken to reduce risk
Why do we need to do an FMEA
• Because it forces the team to go through a
disciplined assessment of risk to identify and
document:
• Potential product-related process
failure modes (or defects)
• Potential effects of these failure modes
on the customer
• Potential process causes (failed Xs) for
each failure mode
• Ways of reducing the occurrence level
of these causes
• Ways of improving the means of
detecting these causes
What is the focus of FMEA
Severity Occurrence Detection
Importance of the Frequency with The ability of the
effect on customer which a given cause current control
requirements. Often occurs and creates scheme to detect
can’t do anything failure modes or prevent a given
about this other than cause
redesign to eliminate
the failure mode
How to perform an FMEA

Identify failure modes and their effects Determine and assess

Identify causes of the failure Prioritize
