Sensitivity analysis with failure mode and effects analysis

Sensitivity analysis with failure mode and effects analysis (SA-FMEA) combines classical FMEA risk scoring with systematic sensitivity analysis to determine which input parameters — severity, occurrence, and detectability ratings — drive the Risk Priority Number (RPN) most strongly. This integration helps teams focus improvement resources where they matter most, revealing how uncertain or variable scoring assumptions propagate into final risk rankings.
