RESUMO:Failure management and the minimization of process variability have gained prominence in the 21st century to ensure the performance of enterprises. To guarantee the quality of their products, the automotive sector, in particular, requires its suppliers to use Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) for risk control of their processes. The standard accepted in the North American market is the 4th Edition FMEA manual by the Automotive International Action Group (AIAG), published in 2008, while German companies adopt the Product and Process FMEA standard by the Verband der Automobilindustrie (VDA), published in 2012. In a globalized world, to facilitate requirements in their supply chains, the AIAG and VDA published a new version of FMEA in 2019, harmonizing its concepts and introducing the Action Priority (AP) criterion to replace the Risk Priority Number (RPN), referred to as the AIAG & VDA FMEA Manual 1st Edition. Although this solution provides more accurate and robust analyses, its development is complex and generally relies on commercial software. A methodological procedure has been developed to enable the application of the steps proposed in the manual, using Excel® and its Power Query® module. This methodological procedure was applied to a flat steel laser welding process in the automotive supply chain, revealing 327 distinct Failure Modes with their respective causes, among which 19 Failure Modes were considered higher priority.
