Hi everyone, I am looking forward for your input.
It is said (as per AIAG) that there should be correspondence between the PFMEA and CP in regards of the "control methods" for all characteristics (which has failure modes, effects and causes associated).
Before expressing my approach, I want to set the following assumptions:
a) Controls should be planned in the PFMEA in order to prevent ("ocurrence") and to detect ("detection") failures modes and/or their causes. With this, we pursue to keep ocurrence and detection ability in an aceptable level in accordance with "severity".
b) All Control Plans I have seen in the past only include one control, typically for detection and in few cases for prevention when there are poka-yokes involved.
My approach is that every characteristic in the CP should include both control methods (prevention/detection) defined in the PFMEA.
Please give me your point of view about what I am right and what I am wrong, since I have not found any compelling answer from customer representatives or consultants.
Best Regards
