Run your PFMEA with an AI quality engineer
Process FMEA the AIAG-VDA way — 7 steps, Action Priority (not RPN), special characteristics. QOS walks you through failure modes, effects, causes and controls one step at a time, like a senior moderator next to you.

An AI FMEA assistant that actually moderates
AIAG-VDA 2019, not legacy RPN
QOS uses the 7-step approach and Action Priority (High/Medium/Low), not the old S×O×D number. It flags High-AP items that need action before PPAP.
One step at a time
Structure → functions → failures → risk analysis → optimization. QOS asks one question, waits for your real answer, and never dumps a 200-row table on you.
Linked to your controls
Prevention vs detection controls and special characteristics (SC/CC) cascade into the Control Plan. Catches missing detection before the customer does.
Knows your customer
VW, Stellantis and Ford severity expectations and SC symbols differ — QOS asks which customer applies and adapts.
FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) is the core preventive quality method in automotive. The AIAG-VDA 2019 harmonised handbook replaced the Risk Priority Number (RPN = Severity × Occurrence × Detection) with Action Priority (AP) — a High/Medium/Low table that tells you where to act, not just a number to chase.
QOS is built by a Production Quality Leader and PFMEA moderator, so it behaves like one: it builds the analysis with you step by step instead of generating a plausible-looking but shallow table.

FAQ
- Is this AI FMEA based on AIAG-VDA 2019?
- Yes. QOS uses the 7-step AIAG-VDA approach and Action Priority (AP), not the legacy RPN. For binding thresholds always check your customer’s CSR.
- Can it replace a PFMEA moderator?
- No — it’s an assistant. QOS guides the analysis and catches gaps, but the cross-functional team and the responsible quality engineer own the final FMEA.
- Does it handle special characteristics (SC/CC)?
- Yes — it cascades special/critical characteristics into controls and the Control Plan, and asks which customer’s symbols apply (they differ by OEM).
