Occurrence

FMEA rating representing the likelihood that a failure cause will occur.

Examples

01The PFMEA rates Occurrence at 7 for a missing weld because the robot has had similar faults several times a month.
02During the supplier's FMEA review, the Occurrence rating is checked against real scrap data, not estimates.
03After error-proofing is added, the team lowers the Occurrence rating only when three months of data support it.
