About This Course
ID632 VDA Field Failure Analysis for Users BACKGROUND AND TOPICS Despite increased efforts in development and production processes aiming to provide customers with mature, robust and conforming products, deviations from the expected state can occur when used in the field. Depending on the type of complaint, the potentially nonconforming parts or automotive components are exchanged and can be requested for analysis by the manufacturer (OEM) or by the supplier via the OEM. The VDA Volume Field Failure Analysis provides a comprehensive approach to identifying causes and was thoroughly revised in 2018. This two-day training presents the contents of the current standard for implementation in the participants’ organisation. TARGET AUDIENCE Personnel from purchasing, design and development, production, warranty, quality assurance and sales in the automotive and supplier industry, who implement and further develop the field failure analysis process. OBJECTIVES The focus is on teaching expert knowledge and competence to implement the field failure analysis method in one’s work environment.

The participants acquire knowledge about the NTF process, special processes and the problem-solving process. In addition, planning the whole field failure analysis process and organisational activities to implement and anchor the process in one’s organisation are dealt with.
