...yep I am sure the "quality consultants" offering the training will be the ones who benefit most from the travesty of a "new standard".
I am sure the old standard could have been tweaked slightly to improve it while maintaining a degree of clarity that would allow "non FMEA" specialists to carry out FMEA's on their own processes. This new standard will just generate a breed of "FMEA specialists" that will be needed just to complete the form!
...I think some people obviously looked at the "old" standard and considered it "too simple", and thought they could show how clever they are by making it more complex for the sake of it...(and an opportunity to make some more money as "trainers), a bit like what happened to SPC in the early days.....
