5.1 Discussions between analyst, client and experts
First of all, before embarking on an FMEA, it is important to agree on the objectives of the analysis; it is up to the analyst (the person in charge of the analysis) to reformulate the need and have it validated by the client. It is also the analyst's responsibility to ensure that the available resources are sufficient to achieve the objectives, in particular that the available knowledge is sufficient and that access to skills is assured.
In return, he will have to explain the limits of the study, which include the limits of the system studied, the limits linked to data uncertainties, the limits due to lack of knowledge, the limits due to the time available and the method used. It would be imprudent to assume...

Appendix 1: FMEA for a lamp post
To illustrate our approach, here's a virtual example of a FMEA analysis. In order to present a fairly small FMECA, the system studied is a simple object and the decomposition is not detailed. This analysis has no claim to relevance, and is intended only to illustrate the approach.
The object under consideration is an ordinary floor lamp.
