Don't try to use a spreadsheet to do a FMEA / FMECA. Although it may be
tempting because you're probably already familiar with spreadsheets, you need
to consider long term costs. Don't skimp when it comes to FMEA software!
The FMEA / FMECA will change and require updates over time, and most of
the cost and effort will come from future iterations. FMEA / FMECA data should
be managed by a database, and ideally the FMEA software should support
multiple users, concurrently accessing the project data, to fully support your
entire FMEA team.
FMEA software that includes completeness checkers can save time and
reduce mistakes. Choosing the right tool also frees up the analyst to do
engineering rather than spend all of their time maintaining a spreadsheet.
Remember, FMECAs can grow to be quite large and can be difficult to manage
without the right tools.
Here is a list of some of the major FMEA software and FMECA software tools:
